The document summarizes key points from three articles that are critical of the No Child Left Behind Act. The first article discusses how supplemental tutoring programs required by NCLB are ineffective due to low enrollment and a lack of oversight. The second article argues that NCLB harms elementary students by reducing recess, not challenging gifted students, and inappropriately testing disabled students. The third article identifies seven "sins" of NCLB, including an overreliance on standardized testing and a failure to help impoverished children. The document concludes that NCLB needs reform or replacement to address these issues.

Department of Health's Policy Improvement Plan 2013Alice Ehrlich
In the Department of Health, we see Open Policy Making not as a discrete concept or behaviour, but a state of mind. We would argue that open policy making is gold-standard policy making. But we recognise that too often, policy making defaults from the gold-standard. Sometimes this is a consequence of unchangeable circumstance, but at other times it could have been prevented. We aim to professionalise our policy making to improve standards, and are using the Twelve Actions to Professionalise Policy Making as a blueprint to do that.
This is our plan for how we’ll get to where we want to be—our Policy Improvement Plan. It introduces our new Policy Tests, outlines how we’ll improve learning and development, openness and connectedness, and how we’ll reward excellence in policy making.
The Plan addresses DH staff as its audience, but—in the true spirit of openness—we want to hear from outside voices, too (you’ll see it’s still not in its final form)! What do you think?

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. Menu Supplemental Educational Services Summary Reflection Quote Time for recess, art, and music Summary Reflection Quote Flaws within the “No Child Left Behind Act” Summary Reflection Quote Conclusion
3. 1 st article title: NCLB's Supplemental Educational Services: Is This What Our Students Need? In low performing schools tutoring, after or before school, is offered to low income students, but only a small amount of students can gain this opportunity because of the high cost of tutors in supplemental services. The money funding these programs though can be used for other things within the school as well and districts have been accused that the money is only going towards other things, but on the other hand the information needed for students to be enrolled in these programs is not being put out in a timely manner. There are many choices of tutoring services now in each district but as of right now few states have not made any way of monitoring the tutoring establishment and if it helps. Attendance to the afterschool tutoring sessions are very low. To make this program more efficient the state governments need to regulate qualifications for the tutors and keep up with which ones work and which ones don’t. Ascher, C. (2006, Oct.)

5. “ Do the companies whose television ads have become so familiar offer students eligible for supplemental services the same computers and attentive female tutors pictured in the ads featuring children who suddenly love school? “ The quote above states an excellent question about difference in the quality actually given from the company and the what it looks like in the advertisements.
6. 2 nd article title: Robbing Elementary Students of Their Childhood: The Perils of No Child Left Behind Elementary Schools around the nation are changing rapidly because of the No Child Left behind legislation. Some schools are taking away recess from children, because of lost instruction time. Loss of this time is taking away socializing time, exercise time, and distressing time. Next the way gifted children are being treated in classrooms are not utilizing their knowledge. Teachers just expect them to meet standards and go no farther. The next point brought up is that the children with disorders are being ignored. They are expected to take the standardized tests that their peers take and are obviously going to fail they try to fail proof the tests by having a way to fill out a “alternative assessment” but the paperwork takes too much time for it to be even worth the time. Lastly the testing for all of these students takes a lot of money that could spent elsewhere in schools. Henley, J etc. (2007).

8. “ This trend concerns parents, principals, and teachers who feel that recess is a vital part of the school day to students.” The thing I do not understand from the statement above is why the parents, principals, and teachers are not more active in taking back recess and giving kids the time for it, and why they do not speak up for the kids. I see that some institutions are but why aren’t their voices more trustworthy to the boards that decide these issues.

The author first mentions that the bill startes with the notion that the education system is a failed system. The difference is the goal’s for the system have altered and needs some revamping in that department. Next testing has become the only indicator of success or failure. The third point is that the bill does not help children in poverty it prevents them from succeeding. The NCLB relies too much on motivation and uses too many punishments and rewards based on one thing. Fifthly many people including educators are confused by the NCLB. Next the legislation was written by people who have not worked with children and so the job is being taken out of the professionals hands. The last point is that the act ignores the U.S’s ingenuity and creativity because of fear from being in second place as far as education is concerned. The author then offers up some solutions that may help some of these concerns. Let schools try new ways to help kids to their goal, use tests to help schools figure out where improvement is needed, put together state and local governments to come up with a solution, work on the impoverished children without trying to change it all, andlet the arts thrive again.

11. “ The great danger we face is that, in our rush to build skills, we undermine our wisdom.” The quote above was one of the most educated statements I found in the entire article. We focus so much on what there is to learn that we forget there are other things to learn other than facts and numbers. There are life lessons we learn at school that help children in their adult lives more than anything else and that should not be taken away.
12. In conclusion the No Child Left Behind Act needs to either be thrown out or reformed because of all of the different aspects wrong with this legislation. From these three articles I could tell that their were multiple things wrong with the act and that something needs to change or the Educational System or the system will fail and the young children’s futures will wither like a new plant without sunlight.
