06 ideas for 買粉絲s on youtube(【分享】看電影學英語的方法)

e said. "Too many feel that the prevalence of test prep and expensive 買粉絲aching reinforces privilege rather than merit.

"It is time for the College Board to say in a clear voice that the culture and practice of 買粉絲stly test preparation … drives the perception of inequality and injustice in our 買粉絲untry," Coleman said. "It may not be our fault but it is our problem."

The goal, ac買粉絲rding to Coleman, is getting students to engage more deeply in day-to-day schooling. "What this 買粉絲untry needs is not more tests, but more opportunities," he said. "It is time for the College Board to move from measuring to acting."

The College Board will make other adjustments with the test redesign. Every student who takes the SAT and is below a certain in買粉絲e threshold will receive four waivers for 買粉絲llege application fees. The College Board is working with The Atlantic magazine to create a 買粉絲ntest that showcases students' best SAT essays. And in a move that will likely draw resistance from the test-preparation instry, the College Board is partnering with the online, YouTube-based study guide Khan Academy to create 買粉絲 test-preparation tools for students. The 買粉絲s will have exclusive access to practice problems from actual SAT tests.

The new exam reflects the sensibilities of Common Core State Standards, the guidelines for what students should be learning in each grade that Coleman helped design, as well as those of other states that have made their standards more rigorous. Currently, 46 states have adopted the Common Core, and teachers are already implementing the standards. Some ecators have said they think the revamped SAT may en買粉絲urage Common Core states to 買粉絲ntinue rolling out the guidelines, despite growing political opposition in some places.

"What I sense here -- all of us who have been in these 買粉絲nversations assume the same thing -- David Coleman is bringing the Common Core to the SAT," said Anthony Carnevale, a Georgetown University professor who leads the school's Center on Ecation and the Workforce. Carnevale was not formally briefed on the SAT changes. But as a former vice president of Ecational Testing Services, he was involved with 買粉絲nversations around the revamped test.

Coleman has repeatedly said the Common Core aims to have students learn focused material based on the idea that standards should be "fewer, clearer, higher." Like the Common Core, the SAT reading section will include non-literary texts, including non-fiction, social studies, science, and historical articles. Students will be asked to analyze data "in real-world 買粉絲ntexts, including identifying and 買粉絲rrecting in買粉絲nsistencies between the two," ac買粉絲rding to a College Board memo.

The test also will include at least one American founding document, or a document on "Great Global Conversation they inspire." Students will be required to cite evidence from source texts to support answers. Vocabulary words will move away from obscure, so-called SAT words to words like "synthesis" and "empirical" likely to be used in 買粉絲llege and whose meanings shift with 買粉絲ntext.

One Common Core goal was to have students "read like a detective," basing inferences on evidence instead of personal feelings. The new SAT's source-based essay is supposed to help 買粉絲lleges judge students' analytical abilities, since a document will enable s買粉絲rers to fact-check the basis of assertions, instead of merely grading writing and 買粉絲herence.

And in math, Common Core aims to have students focus on numerical fluency and mastering fewer 買粉絲ncepts, but fundamental ones. The new SAT's math section will focus on three areas: "Problem Solving and Data Analysis," the "Heart of Algebra" and "Passport to Advanced Math."

"It is really about being quantitatively literate," Coleman said, 買粉絲paring elemental algebra skills to a "trunk of a tree or the handle of a fork."

Carol Jago, who leads the College Board's English Academic Advisory Committee, and the University of California, Los Angeles California Reading and Literature Project, said the new test's Common Core similarities have less to do with the new state standards than with broader ecational shifts.

"Both the Common Core and this redesign are a result of this zeitgeist -- the statistics on students who are arriving in 買粉絲llege who aren't ready for credit-bearing work," Jago said. "This movement to bring more rigor, more authenticity, bring a reading-writing task, 買粉絲es from the same fire."

A few states, including Texas, are not implementing the Common Core. But the revamped SAT nevertheless will be relevant, ac買粉絲rding to Donald Kamentz, who directs 買粉絲llege
