Standardized Tests Standardized Testing

G. I Maeroff wrote the first article I read he
feels that assessment of student's achievement is
changing, largely because today's students face a
world that will demand new knowledge and
abilities. 'In the global economy of the 21 st
century, students will not only need to understand
the basics, but also to think critically, to
analyze, and to make inferences' (Maeroff, 1991).

believe that what get assessed is what get taught
and that the format of as...

Fourth Amendment Drug Abusers

A current issue that is going on today is welfare
recipients that are drug abusers. Welfare is
supposed to meet the basic needs. Drugs seem far
from one of the basic human needs to me. If the
recipient gets all the benefits from the programs
they will more than likely turn around and sell
their food stamps for their fix rather than go to
the store and get their family some food. Drugs
also go hand and hand with family problems,
violence, and crime. It is estimated that between
50 % and 80 % of F...
