In the United States‚ this is an everyday problem. Unfortunately‚ educators keep ignoring the warning signs that show that something needs to change. State standardized tests are state issued tests that measure a student’s ability to recall and apply knowledge. America has recently placed extra emphasis on these tests‚ and by doing that‚ the

Standardized Testing: Good or Bad? If someone was to ask you “how do you define student achievement?” what would your answer be? Would you say student achievement is measured by state achievement tests? Or would you say that student achievement is too complex a subject to be objectively measured? There are many important skills students must be taught‚ and we need a way to effectively measure if they are in fact learning those skills. However‚ standardized tests cannot effectively show the learning

Standardized Tests We all know how stressful tests can be. Standardized tests take the normal stress levels from test and multiplies it infinitely. The only things standardized tests accomplish are limiting the results of students’ grades‚ not testing their full potential‚ and thieving students of their opportunity to learn more. Schools shouldn’t require kids to complete standardized tests. The first reason schools shouldn’t have standardized tests is that the tests only track a student’s performance

Converged network adapter From Wikipedia‚ the free encyclopedia A converged network adapter (CNA)‚ also called a converged network interface controller (C-NIC)‚ is a computer input/output device that combines the functionality of a host bus adapter (HBA) with a network interface controller (NIC). In other words it "converges" access to‚ respectively‚ a storage area network and a general-purpose computer network. "Converged" network adapter diagram Contents [hide] 1 Support 1.1 Brocade

frequencies satellite networks are able to provide broadband services requiring wider bandwidth than the current services at C or Ku-band. As a consequence‚ some of the new services gaining momentum include mobile services‚ private intranets and high data rate internet access carried over integrated satellite-fiber ATM networks. Several performance issues need to be addressed before a transport layer protocol‚ like TCP can satisfactorily work over satellite ATM for large delay-bandwidth networks. In this paper

Students are classified as either intelligent or challenged on the basis of their scores. Teachers and schools are also evaluated on the measurement of test scores. Standardized tests fail to reach their goals and are ineffective in determining the true ability of students and teachers. Standardized testing was first implemented to identify underprivileged students with

Assignment 2: LAN with Two Subnets Gabriel Jerez Strayer University: Asynchronous CIS408: Network Infrastructure Planning October 28‚ 2012 A LAN consisting of two subnets with a total of 50 users‚ each subnet consisting of 25 users‚ a domain controller‚ and a switch must be connected using the appropriate networking equipment. In my design I decided to use a Cisco 2900 Series Router to connect the two subnets (Cisco ‚ 2012). The router has both routing
