[Lesley Farmer]

Focus on children, not testing Academic achievement requires student
engagement, personalized learning and skilled and caring teachers, not
just testing gains, said a recent report from ASCD's Commission on the
Whole Child. "We need to rethink what education of the whole child
means and make sure every student has access to a rich and challenging
curriculum that pays attention to other aspects." ASCD Commission on
the Whole Child. (2008). The learning compact redefined. Alexandria,
