    Re: Does New Mexico have a test similar to Texas's TAKS test
    Posted by cjode on 9/16/08

    it is full of subjective grading here in NM. It is my opinion
    that a standardized test should be standardized; not leaving room
    for a subjective scorer for the majority of the test (about 50%
    is subjective scoring.) A colleague of mine goes to item review
    workshops every year and the stories she tells of discrepancies
    in scoring are horrifying. I taught in TX for 15 years and then
    moved to NM. Texas has a good test and great standards in the
    TAKS/TEKS. NM needs to peek at their neighbors in order to get
    out of the ditch they are in, IMHO!
