Dr. Stephen Krashen forwarded this paper by
Dr. David Berliner (AZ State U) to me last night after our
#SOSChat Radio show.
It explains, in excruciating detail, the stifling effects poverty has on young children, and how the money spent on testing could be much better spent ameliorating the effects poverty has on students.
It's an important read, and an exclusive preview of the yet-to-be published paper.
