Purpose of Education Reform
“… to provide students with the opportunity to become responsible citizens, to contribute to their own economic well-being, and to that of their families and communities, and to enjoy productive and satisfying lives.”
- Basic Education Act (Goal)
![Page 3: No Child Left Behind](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56814860550346895db56ce4/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
What is different about this reform effort?
The Expectations!
1. All children achieving at high levels
2. Increase in level of intellectual demand on the student and the performance required to demonstrate achievement
A system is designed to produce exactly what it produces . . . If we continue to do what we’ve always done, we’ll continue to get what we’ve always gotten.
“In times of change, learners inherit the earth, while the learned find themselves beautifully equipped to deal with a world that no longer exists.” - Eric Hoffer

Accountability Models
“As with any sound accountability model, states must first identify their desired outcomes, develop a set of indicators to measure those outcomes, evaluate the reliability and validity of the measures, create incentives for individuals and institutions to take part (honestly) in the system and develop a system of continuous improvement (not just annual assessments).”
(Venezia 6)
![Page 11: No Child Left Behind](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56814860550346895db56ce4/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
State’s Responsibility
Within the accountability system there are several major units of performance, accountability and reporting.
States can: Monitor progress Identify relative performance of one group as
compared to another Provide instructional targets and incentives Allocate resources Assess progress and provide information.
![Page 12: No Child Left Behind](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56814860550346895db56ce4/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Assessment = “High Stakes Testing
Many states and school districts mandate testing programs to gather data about student achievement over time and to hold schools and students accountable. Certain uses of achievement test results are termed "high stakes" if they carry serious consequences for students or for educators. Schools may be judged according to the school-wide average scores of their students. High school-wide scores may bring public praise or financial rewards; low scores may bring public embarrassment or heavy sanctions.
(AERA 2000)

Curriculum
Test-measurement principles, and legal rulings affirming many of those principles, specify that a test intended to measure what a student has learned should be a fair measure of the curriculum and instruction to which the students have been exposed.
If, after all, a test is intended to serve as a true measure of what students are learning in class, then that test should cover material that is actually taught.

“The district has the option to spend as much as 50% of its funds in
supporting its teachers.”

Blue Ribbon Award
Who gets it?-“The No Child Left Behind-Blue Ribbon Schools Award honors public and private K-12 schools that are either academically superior in their state or that demonstrate dramatic gains in student achievement.”
How does a school get it? “40% of their students from disadvantaged
backgrounds make a significant improvement in student performance and the schools that score in the top 10% on state assessments”
![Page 28: No Child Left Behind](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56814860550346895db56ce4/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Does money really matter?
“Behind this charge seems to be the assumption that a flood of money can solve the problem of academic achievement, an assumption that, if it were true, would give Washington, D. C., which spends nearly $14,000 a year on every student, some of the best schools in the country. The truth is, Washington, D.C.'s schools spend at the top but achieve at the bottom. That city is spending at least $350,000 a year for one classroom of kids, and that city's children have the lowest NAEP scores in the nation in reading, the lowest NAEP scores in math. Money is not the be-all and end-all in education.”
-Mrs. Cheney
