A reader called my attention to this comment by an anonymous teacher in Florida. It appears following an article in the Tampa Bay Times about the disastrous implementation of the value-added methodology in Pinellas County.
I was reminded when I read this comment about a conversation with an economist in Austin, Texas, who wondered if it might be fruitful to study the question of why "reformers" assert they are improving education when everything they do demoralizes teachers.
This nonsense is coming in Delaware. A complete disgrace.
