I think standardized testing can be a good tool to find strengths and weaknesses in science. How much weight should be put on it is a school district vision and mission. The big thing is: Are we teaching to the test to ensure the kids score high - or are we teaching the subject and using the test to uncover areas that need improvement or areas where we are enriching the kids. Standardized testing can be a great tool but we have to use a lot of judgment using it.
