Wasted Data, Wasted Dolllars & Wasted Lives

 Wasted Data, Wasted Dollars, Wasted Lives: Research indicates not only an assessment system failure in American Public Schools. We have a massive moral failure where private entities are profiting off the misery of our children, teachers, and parents as well. 


We measure what doesn’t matter, and the results come back 6 too late. No one is reading the research, they are reading Influencers, Podcasters, CEOs, Political Think Tank Pundits,  

Who should we listen to? Children, teachers, and parents. These voices remain silenced in education reform research. Keeping them silent keeps profits up and an endless cycle of failure going. 

I invite you to watch the YouTube video Bob Greenberg filmed on Brainwaves Video Anthology of me discussing decades of education reform failures.

I am sending out an Assessment SOS. Research paints a massive moral failure of education reform in America. 

Readers, this one needs to go viral. Our Public School Assessment System is broken and unfair and does more harm than good to children, teachers, and the public.
