Abstract
This discussion provides a response to Gregory Cizek's “More Unintended Consequences of High‐Stakes Testing.” The current policy debate is characterized by extreme positions both for and against testing, and Cizek's article balances positive consequences against antitesting critics. However, there is no evidence that high‐stakes testing per se has substantial positive consequences–although there is optimism that aligned educational systems, in which testing is a component, may lead to higher levels of student attainment.
