|
In his new book, “The Testing Charade: Pretending to Make Schools Better” (University of Chicago Press, 2017), Daniel Koretz, one of the nation’s leading experts on testing, argues that our education system suffers from a myopic focus on high-stakes testing that is misguided and bad for schools and students.
