Definición

  • High-stakes, standardized tests have become the dominant tool for assessing student learning in the United States. While the scores of such tests have been used to identify gaps in the achievement of working-class, African American, and Latino students relative to more affluent and/or European American students, the increased use of high-stakes, standardized tests has had detrimental effects on diversity in education.
