Kenneth Sirotnik asserts that however well-intentioned, past and current accountability practices in public education are ""miseducative, misdirected, and misanthropic."" In this provocative book, well-respected educators join Sirotnik to provide critical analyses and sophisticated perspectives on prevailing high-stakes accountability practices. They offer both conceptual and practical foundations for rethinking what it means to act responsibly when it comes to calling our schools, school systems, educators, and students into account.
