Snakeoil alert: “a comprehensive look at Summit Learning — the program behind the so-called rebellion in Kansas — found that it was often making good on its potential to “transform teaching and learning for the better.” Actually NO evidence for that. hechingerreport.org/opinion-fixing…
This article hyping @#Summit links to another praising its use in Wellington KS without noting that Wellington has ditched it too wellingtondailynews.com/news/20200519/…
I’d like to see some sort of disclosure at minimum @hechingerreport which repeatedly hypes #Summit about how much funding they’ve gotten from its main patron @ChanZuckerberg cc @L_willen
For the real Summit story see our summary, citations and bibliography here studentprivacymatters.org/wp-content/upl… and how Summit refused to allow an independent evaluation of its online platform here chalkbeat.org/2019/1/17/2112…
Oh yes & Pianta who wrote this lauding Summit for @hechingerreport didn’t disclose that he runs something called the #edtech evidence exchange which also gets millions from @ChanZuckerberg prnewswire.com/news-releases/… dailyprogress.com/news/local/gra…
