Will more testing lead to improved education? -- Radio Smart Talk, Wednesday, June 24

Written by  Scott LaMar, Director of Radio Smart Talk

The study sent the Rendell Administration, including the State Department of Education into motion. As a result, the Adminstration settled on a plan that would administer exams in 10 end of course subject areas to test what students have learned. Students would have to pass the exams in order to graduate. Will more testing ensure students are ready for graduation, college or the workplace?

Guests:
PA Secretary of Education Gerald Zahorchak


Monty Neill, Executive Director of the National Center for Fair and Open Testing
