Long History of High-Stakes Test

From
“Long History of High-Stakes Test” we can see that High-Stakes Test is not
effective to measure student, from the history we can conclude, High-Stakes
Test is totally cruel to adapt, the history shows that, when the tribe of
Ephraim tried to cross the Jordan River, they wanted them to pronounce
“Shibboleth”, we may know the Jordan River citizens gave a test to them, if
they can not pronounce “Shibboleth” correctly, they was killed by Jordan River
citizen, from the history we can see that situation is like violence, when
something have to measure by giving a test to produce a perfectness result, when you fail to do that, you can not pass the
test, and it becomes a high risk.
We
can summarize that High-Stakes Test can not completely apply for assessing
students, nowadays, an assessment is not solely using a test, test is not
everything, student can not be assessed by only giving a test and taking a
result or score what they have done from the test. We have
additional assessment to measure, it could be, student characteristic in daily
classroom, their assignment, or their activity in teaching learning process.
Approach Used to Develop Standard
Developed by : American Federation of Teachers
National Council on Measurement in Education
National Education Association
An
approach is really necessary. Even, we are teaching must use an approach to
know how the method, technique, and principal to teach student. It also needs
in assessing, we need an approach to assess student, and we hope that approach
could result positive effect in assessing students.
We require
an approach to reach standard in assessing student, include what teacher needs
in measuring a student, for example, teacher not only using a test to measure
student, but they have additional indicators to measure a student. Approach is
needed in assessing students, however teacher can judge students
professionally, they need approach to treat students the same and justice
without any discrimination, because they have approach to reach standard in
assessing.
Thus, I
hope education government could determine and formulate the best approach for
assessing. It is crucial thing to do how to assess a student, it can lead teacher
how to measure, it could be measuring how to give students’ score, students’
competencies, or students’ work and can
formulate a standard procedure effectively .
