This recent article in The Boston Globe highlights some further criticism of the MTEL exams--the Massachusetts teachers' examinations required for all k-12 educators and most early childhood educators.
It's a pretty good case for some serious and sweeping changes of the types of requirements necessary. Check out the earlier blog posts for more information on how I rated these licensing exams from MA, CT, and RI and some of the criticisms I had for them.
This does raise some pretty interesting questions, does it not?
