Description

For the second episode of the Edspective podcast, the co-hosts discuss how standardized testing might look in Fall 2020, given the current COVID-19 context. We discuss how various states handle standardized testing suggesting that postponing standardized testing might be the best approach given all the ambiguity regarding the virus, transmissions rates, viral load, and other variables still unaccounted for in the current model. Further, we suggest that such testing could be high stakes in ways we have no account for, including using the performance metrics as a grade for a class. Therefore we suggest that school systems should carefully weight the unknowns against the push to reopen.
