American students continued a pattern of failing to make notable gains in a national exam, with result scores dropping in nearly all categories and on par with those from a decade ago.
Fourth-graders made the only statistically significant gain—1 point—in math, for an average score of 241 out of a possible 500, according to the 2019 National Assessment of Educational Progress, known as the Nation’s Report Card, released Wednesday. The tests are taken every two years by a sample of fourth and eighth-graders in reading and math.
That’s because we have politicians telling us how to teach to the children!
its not about money, its about methods
This couldn’t possible be related to immigration or demographic change right?
Why to read when there is Google uncle to mislead and cheat! Mathematicians live in abstract spaces, be it linear, Banach, Hilbert etc! They have lost sense of relevance to the mundane illusory world and also the world of Truth. Remove zero and empty set; most of maths collapses!
Pay teachers on a federal level, keep education state side, look for innovation in the education community, get rid of state standardized testing.
Science GONE -- replaced with Climate Change theological dogma, from the very earliest of grades. Math --- gone == its racist History --- socialist dogma And now Warren wants to ban any school that is not union-dominated left wing public.
They don’t even teach the kids cursive writing. Guess they’ll have to print everything even legal documents or maybe just Mark with an X? Can’t imagine what the rationale for this would be.
How can there be when in an example classroom 1 teacher 27 students 7 primary languages other then English. Teach teaches to the lowest level
iPhone/Introduced June 29, 2007. There’s your problem. I mean my god the school’s supply the kids with computers now days.
We need Project Based Learning now. Self Direction, Curiosity and Sense of Purpose are the building blocks. prepared summit proven
Progressive teacher's unions don't teach, they indoctrinate. Have an evil symbiotic relationship with democrats that leaves all kids behind.
Not surprising.... the more we spend the lower the results .... has been going that way for decades
Oh, it’s because we need to throw MORE money at the problem vs. recognizing our current educational system isn’t working.
But let’s keep letting the teacher unions strike demanding salary and benefit increases and bleed the taxpayers dry , insane
social programs, zero deciplin clipen
How many billions/trillions do we spend a year on public education and it still sucks?
let's see....new age know it all educators fail at reinventing the wheel? math consists of laws and absolutes. 1st not remembering mult tables,2nd not drilling enough,3rd common core like looking at real world through eyes of a psychotic. math not about feelings and SJW issues!
In old days, better students were expected to help their peers—which improved both. Now better students are moved to “gifted classes”. We should rethink some of these practices. All of our kids deserve good teachers/high achievement expectations. Math and reading are critical.
Education system is terrible, need to focus on main subjects like math and science and actual finance as it relates to life. Also actually teaching instead of just memorizing
Well, they have iPhones for that, now....
Need consistent parenting
This is what happens when we spend time striking for climate change rather than focusing on reading and math.
...don’t blame the students
1) teachers are too busy pushing for liberal agendas and not paying attention to proper teaching. 2) kids too obsessed with inner feelings and secondary causes.
School choice!!!
This is why government should be in control of education and not these private teachers.
Troubling !
More teachers, more pay and reading and math teachers to help those who need help.
Need to change how we educate our kids!!!
does shrinking IQ and test scores have anything to do with shrinking white demographic and rising thrid-world demo?
$1.5 trillion unfunded teachers' pensions.
This is what happens when you can't fire ineffective teachers who now think math is somehow racist.
Thanks Obama!
Meanwhile, local education budgets have done whaaaaaat!?
Because republicans are all about funding their religious for-profit charter schools instead of public schools
Common core
Teachers unions
Because we have chosen to gut public education, give children anxiety about their safety in schools and show nothing but contempt for teachers. BetsyDeVosED has accelerated this decades long decline in our value for educating the next gen.
Because the parents are inept ( only SE Europe DNA will improve IQ in two decades staring from now)
Parenting
So all that new bullshitty new math they have kids doing is really just the bullshit we all knew it was? Fantastic. Chicago school FL.
