Why were the teachers in Chicago cheating for their students

History
1 answer:
Mama L [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Chicago Public Schools is a huge system educating more than 400,000 students a year. During the 1990s a new concept of “high-stakes” testing was being debated in the US educational system. The testing was called high-stakes because instead of only testing the students on their progress, schools are held accountable for the results. The Chicago Public School system embraced high-stakes testing in 1996. Under the new policy, a school with low reading scores would be placed on probation and face the threat of being shut down, its staff to be dismissed or reassigned. The CPS also did away with what is known as social promotion. In the past, only a dramatically inept or difficult student was held back a grade. Now, in order to be promoted, every student in third, sixth, and eighth grade had to manage a minimum score on the standardized, multiple-choice exam known as the Iowa Test of Basic Skills.

Match each country with its most likely place on the economic continuum. China Japan North Korea India
joja [24]

Answer:

The economic continuum goes from a command, planned economy on the extreme left side, to a fully free market economy on the extreme right side, and various combinations of both in the middle.

China: China is in part a command economy, because the state still has prevalence in some key sectors, for example, in banking. However, it also has many aspects of a free enterprise system. Its position is slightly to the left.

Japan: Japan is an economy that is freer than the world-average. Private firms dominante the economy. Its position is comfortably on the right side of the continuum.

North Korea: North Korea is the least free economy in the world. It is a planned, command economy where private property basically does not exist. Its position is on the extreme left.

India: India is freer than China, but less free than Japan. It used to be a very planned economy, but has been liberalizing many sectors. Its position is slightly to the right.
