What I respond to is that assessment also has to change if our instruction changes and that does not always work well within a district. My district is accountable by the measure of a standardized test in the U.S. and wants consistency and measurability so there can be a numerical score to say yes everything is good here or no there is a problem. I think the greatest currency teachers have in the classroom is time. Eliminating reviews just grants more time for engagement, if you give up the campus competition and focus on instruction the state assessment scores will follow.
