With National School Choice Week kicking off today, two choice advocates make the case for expanding the options for Georgia parents and families, citing increased public support for charter schools and tax credits. In a guest column, a University of Georgia professor warns the quest to measure the effectiveness of teachers, schools and even colleges of education by standardized test scores will not only narrow curriculum, but drive talented people out of the profession. Readers share their views on whether test-based accountability has gone too far and done too little.
