Article by @williamdoylenyc @pasi_sahlberg about adopting a 'golden age of play' approach to learning in the wake of #COVID19

"the lifelong success of children is based on their ability to be creative and to apply the lessons learned from playing" https://t.co/EVO1C3t56t @CNN

Side effects of large scale assessments that cannot have a technical fix--An article I co-authored last year. #edchat #educhat https://t.co/8xfI8oKYmR

[Teacherasleader @teacherasleader]

With large scale assessments postponed in 2020 this is an important read in the reconsideration of future implementation-am hoping policy makers consider the significant side effects of LSA upon educational systems 👇🏽

My new research paper for @JournalEdChange, open access, concludes that Ontario's @EQAO test "is now an educationally ineffective and systemically incoherent anachronism". https://t.co/OeVsfDmsmE @DianeRavitch @MichaelFullan1 @pasi_sahlberg @etfopresident @otffeo @CarolCampbell4

[Michael Fullan @MichaelFullan1]

A great analysis indeed! In this case the problem is not with assessments per se, but a) what they measure, and b) how they are used. Literacy and numeracy assessments no longer carry the day, and punitive use never carried any day.
