Where children live significantly affects their chances for success in life, according to the Editorial Projects in Education (EPE) Research Center, which based its analysis on its new "Chance-for-Success Index." The index tracks state efforts to connect education from preschool through postsecondary education and training, and the results are presented in Quality Counts 2007: From Cradle to Career, Connecting Americanan Education. From Birth to Adulthood, produced by Education Week with support from the Pew Center on the States. The report is available online at www.edweek.org/go/qc07 .
Jeffrey Weld - asks
Why is it that whenever students don't do well on a test or on particular items on a test that national news agencies report (NPR for one). They not only give the questions, but feel it is necessary to provide the answers. If there listeners need the answer, why should we expect students to be able to answer it correctly?
