Activity
Learning About Nclb
Many Students Have Heard About The No Child Left Behind Act, But They Have Never
Examined The Impact Of Nclb On Everyday Education. This Activity May Be Used To
Help Illustrate Both Objective I And Objective Vii. Ask Students To Collect 2-3
Scholarly Articles Related To Nclb And Summarize Their Findings In 3 Main Points.
During The Next Class Period, Invite Students To Break Out Into Groups Of 3-4 To
Discuss Their Findings. They Should Be Able To Identify Whether Their Findings
Matched Their Beliefs About Nclb And How They Might Use Educational Research To
Be Informed Policy Consumers.
Discussion Questions
The No Child Left Behind Act (Nclb) Of 2001 Has Been The Center Of A Great Deal Of
Controversy. What Have You Heard About This Piece Of Legislation? Have You
Developed An Opinion? If So, What Is Your Opinion And How Did You Develop It? If
Not, What More Do You Think You Should Know About Nclb?
We Hear A Lot From Educators And Politicians Today About Accountability. Should
Teachers’ Jobs And Salaries Depend On How Much Their Students Learn? What Would
Happen To Curricula And Attention To Students’ Differences?
