Life rarely presents opportunities where success or mastery is measured by a standardized test. So why are we preparing our kids, for the future, like this? Data from tests should only be used to guide remediation for the next year. #teachnottest #moreteachinglesstesting

The amount of time spent on standardized testing is ridiculous. It's counterproductive. We should be spending our time on teaching & learning. Trouble is, tests are mandated from above. #MoreTeachingLessTesting #SupportPublicSchools #TBATs

We're so busy proving we're doing a good job, we don't have time to actually do a good job. It's a shame. And it needs to change. #JustLetUsTeach #TeachNotTest #MoreTeachingLessTesting #SupportPublicSchools #RespectOurExpertise #TBATs @NancyEBailey1 @nancyflanagan @OhioBATs

Students and parents wanna focus on learning and continuing to build knowledge in relationship with our teachers. For 2 yrs we assessed students without them... #moreteachinglesstesting

Pres. @MelindaJPerson visited three public high schools that are part of the NY Performance Standards Consortium. These schools evaluate students using real-world skills instead of standardized tests, exemplifying many reccs from our #MoreTeachingLessTesting Task Force Report.

So, you got to ask yourself... if you can predict scores by just looking at housing stock, why waste time & money on testing? Or blame schools that don't have the same kind of resources that schools in better off neighborhoods have? #TBATs @alfiekohn #MoreTeachingLessTesting

.@JamaalBowmanNY THIS!!!!! #MoreTeachingLessTesting

Teachers know what they taught, and who got it and who needs more help to get it. It's immediate feedback. Standardized test scores don't come for months, most often after the students have moved on to the next grade. #TBATs #TeachNotTest #MoreTeachingLessTesting

Very proud to have endorsed 3 @SCSchools Board of Ed Candidates, Bernice Rivera, Amanda Sponable-Pantalone and Nohelani Etiennne who all understand this point! #whatkidsneed #moreteachinglesstesting

Improving Assessment Workgroup! Thank you @AFTunion for bringing us together nationally to change the narrative of assessment. #moreteachinglesstesting #authenticassessment @rweingarten @MelindaJPerson @nysut @UFT

Yes! Learning is about experience, and it’s time to focus on the magic of teaching and learning, not testing. Our kids will lead our democracy that works for all. Thank you @RepBowman. #MoreTeachingLessTesting #WhatKidsNeed

Out in Suffolk tonight for ED 20 meeting. Updates on all things NYSUT and NYSED. Thanks for having me! #moreteachinglesstesting @nysut @chateacher27

More Teaching; Less Testing! @nysut EVP @JCiffone updated the Board of Directors on what our union is going to address the the issue of high stakes testing. #MoreTeachingLessTesting

The average American student takes 112 standardized tests throughout their K-12 education. Forcing educators to teach to the test stifles the creativity that students need to unlock their brilliance. We need @RepBowman’s #MoreTeachingLessTesting Act now.

Schools can't be reduced to standardized test scores any more than kids can be. #TBATs #MoreTeachingLessTesting @MIBATS @BATsDelaware @OhioBATs @MarylandBAT @PennBat @VirginiaBATs @BATs_DC @NoCarolinaBATs @SoCarolinaBATs

NYS needs to fix the flawed system of standardized testing. @nysut EVP @JCiffone updates the Board of Directors on what our union is doing to address the issue. #MoreTeachingLessTesting

Executive Director, Diana Cournoyer, was proud to represent NIEA today as @RepBowman introduced the #MoreTeachingLessTesting Act #EducationSovereignty

When you need the “how” to implement the “what”, ask the experts! Our NYS educators in subject area committees engaging in deep discussion about content and 21st century learning, always keeping the students at the core of the work. #moreteachinglesstesting

Spent the morning with Congressman @JamaalBowmanNY, a fearless advocate for public education who knows we need #MoreTeachingLessTesting @nysut @AFTunion @AndyPallotta @NEAToday

In the middle of a teacher shortage, we shouldn’t give educators more reasons to leave. Standardized tests limit teachers’ input and are unfairly used to measure job performance. Let’s support our educators instead 👩🏽‍🏫🧑🏻‍🏫👨🏿‍🏫👩🏼‍🏫🧑🏾‍🏫 #MoreTeachingLessTesting

Our students are so much more than their test scores. They have brains, and hearts, and incredible insights. @NancyEBailey1 #TBATs #MoreTeachingLessTesting

Join us tomorrow ⁦Sun at 7 pm EST @WBAI⁩ for #TalkoutofSchool when we’ll ask Rep. @JamaalBowmanNY⁩ about his new bill #MoreTeachingLessTesting & 2 PEP members about why they voted no at last week’s panel approval of DOE budget; also pl call in!

Reading and Math shouldn't be just about doing well on Standardized Tests. Learning should never be restricted to just that. #MoreTeachingLessTesting #TBATs @GeorgiaBATs2 @AlabamaBATs @KentuckyBATs @MemphisbatBa @MississippiBAT #TeachNotTest #SupportPublicSchools
