Watch VideosDebates on Hot Topics: Perspectives on Standardized Testing
A current trend in education is eliminating standardized testing, which historically was viewed as an objective measure of student performance. We've asked two experts in the field for their perspectives on the value and usefulness of these tests to help you decide whether they should be used in your school.

Debates on Hot Topics: The 1619 Project
The 1619 Project is a New York Times initiative to "reframe" the way American history is taught in schools, to one with an increased focus on slavery. It has been controversial, but today, many K-12 schools have adopted it into their curriculum. We asked two leading American historians to discuss The 1619 Project to help you decide whether it should be used in your school.
Perspectives from:
Leslie Harris, Ph.D., Stanford, 1995, Professor of History
Peter Wood, Ph.D., President, National Association of Scholars, Author, 1620: A Critical Response to the 1619 Project
