Test scores have become a primary tool for measuring the performance of
individual students, teachers and schools. This two-part special report offers a
collection of articles and resources intended to help educators, policy-makers
and community members understand better the issues associated with high
stakes testing. Part I of the report explores the concepts of accountability and
assessment, as well as the important role testing plays in the U.S.' No Child
Left Behind Act. Part II, which covers the impact of testing on instruction and
assessment strategies, will be published on Aug. 26.
