Speaking as a former teacher (middle school) and teaching law student (taught legal writing in my second and third year of law school, to 1 L's) married to a current teacher (20+ years as adult ed, now on 2nd year teaching first grade).
The current "teaching is testing" climate in the US is atrocious, a thinly-failed union-busting attempt to penalize teachers stuck teaching poor kids and kids whose first language is not English, as well as the "charter-school" hoax, are nothing less than an outright attempt to kill public education and privatize it as a gift to large corporations.
Sickening, honestly.
