Optional Week Discussion Topic 1
From what I have observed and from your comments in your posts, most of you are utilizing some version of the strategies we studied and implemented in this training session. There were differences in methodology and implementation, of course. Why, after so much hard work on your part, are results for our schools poor when it comes to testing? I have several ideas about why this is, and I am sure you do, too. I would like to suggest that question as a beginning topic of discussion.

One thought - Testing is a whole different "genre" that also needs to be taught. Giving the test at the end of the chapter (or story) in the textbook doesn't seem to translate to achievement testing unless testing techniques are specifically taught as a lesson and thoroughly examined throughout the year.
