Ed Sec'y Wants Increased Rigor in School Reform Reporting - Dave Nagel, THE Journal
At a conference of the Institute of Education Sciences Monday, United States Secretary of Education Arne Duncan implored researchers and state agency workers to apply increased rigor when analyzing and reporting on school reforms. In his speech, Duncan emphasized this last point in particular--the creation of data systems to track achievement. He said one of his "top priorities" would be to support states in their efforts to develop such data systems. "Hopefully some day we can track kids from pre-school to high-school and from high school to college and college to career," he said. "Hopefully we can track good kids to good teachers and good teachers to good colleges of education."
