Reading Sage: AIMS Reading Test

We have spent hundreds of billions of dollars the last 20 years on the business initiated "accountability movement"! Now we have mass testing! Costly ineffective published reading, math, and science programs! So called literacy programs "Scientifically Researched" designed to improve students outcomes, yet more students are failing!

Finland rejected the "GERM: Global Education Reform Movement" corporate lead model of education and empowered teachers to make educational decisions. NOW Finland has one of the best educational systems in the world!

20 years of accountability, school reform, and top down education management, has produced great corporate profits, yet little or no academic success!

Business and politics has lead the worst development in the history of education and civilization, the idea of building workers as the primary job of public schools, not building prosperous citizens! Sean Taylor Reading Sage

I hope we shall crush in its birth the aristocracy of our monied corporations which dare already to challenge our government to a trial by strength, and bid defiance to the laws of our country. Thomas Jefferson

Students don’t come standardized, so why do we give so many standardized tests? MONEY!

Students in Finland are consistently ranked at the Top in Math and Science achievement! Why, because they focus on educational equity, not ranking, labeling, accountability or competition!

Finland amazingly rejected the "Accountability Movement" 20 years ago and decided to develop a teacher-student centered learning model. They do not administer standardized or criterion referenced test! Teachers are free to make students learning the priority! Teachers are trusted and bad public policy is STOPPED!

We will never "cure bad schools", we can only change bad public policy that feeds a lack of equity! We need to cure the Global Education Reform Movement! THE GERM!
