“The Ed Bizâ€[1] continues to spiral Hades-ward:
My boy just got the practice version of the Oregon Standardized Math Test. This Sample Test is intended for Grade 3.He has example questions. Go and be properly appalled.
The test is a putrid example of how bad these standardized tests are. As near as I can tell, it's a combination of testers being proud of how well they can trick third graders, and utter ignorance of basic mathematical principles. - Bart Massey
