Description

Explore the reality of standard-based accountability in American education. For nearly twenty years, politicians from both sides of the aisle have used accountability as a major talking point. This book looks past the buzzwords to examine whether these reforms actually work in practice. The New Accountability examines the current wave of assessment-based school reforms. It investigates how these policies combine the traditions of public accountability with student testing. By looking at how these standards and assessment measures impact the complex environment of the American comprehensive high school, this work provides a deep look at modern educational reform. This text is an essential resource for those studying the intersection of economics, policy, and education. It offers a thorough study of what happens when assessment-based mandates meet the reality of high school systems. Gain a better understanding of the impact of high-stakes testing on the American school system through this detailed analysis.
