Parents, students, educators and social justice advocates from across Massachusetts testified at the State House on June 11 in favor of bills that would curtail the use of high-stakes standardized testing in public education. The hearing was one of several events including in a Week of Action organized by the Massachusetts Justice Education Alliance, of which MTA is a founding member. During the week, thousands of members and students wore “Less Testing/More Learning” stickers and posted the message on social media. Also during the week, legislators were contacted at in-district meetings and through phone calls. They were asked to support H. 340, the MTA-backed bill that would impose a three-year moratorium on the high-stakes use of standardized tests. More info available at massteacher.org/testing.

Scenes from COSI's "Great Egg Drop Challenge" teacher workshop, held as part of the Medina County Schools ECS's Ohio Educator Symposium on Monday, June 17, 2013.
Teachers developed a better understanding of gravity, friction, and inertia by attempting to yank a tablecloth off a table (keeping the tableware in place) and dropping four raw eggs into cups without breaking any. We only lost two!
