Imagining Successful Schools (Joe Nocera) from the New York Times
"... tests, as Marc S. Tucker points out in a new report, Fixing Our National Accountability System, that are used to decide which teachers should get to keep their jobs and which should be fired. This system has infuriated and shamed teachers, and is a lot of the reason that teacher turnover is so high, causing even many of the best teachers to abandon the ranks. All of which might be worth it if this form of accountability truly meant that public school students were getting a better education."
