  Case: Invalid Assessments
Everything that I have read and learned through my assessment courses in the masters program states that in order to fairly assess my students, the assessment questions must be valid. I have noticed that many of the assessment questions assigned on my district assessments do not fit with the standards. I brought this to the attention of my administrators and they said because it is district assessments that I must give it to the students. I just don't agree with this, I even offered to remake the tests and was told no. What could I do when I don't believe in something, but am told another?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
A short term fix is to teach how you feel but assess how they feel. Long term fight it against the committee, and just work hard against it legally.
