Indeed, these two diverse types of education are defined in two completely different ways, clearly illustrating how there is often more to linguistic expression than meets the eye.

Standardized – also called high-stakes – testing continues to be one of the most challenged policies of the entire subject of school reform; not only does it pit at-risk children against higher privileged students, but it also seeks to determine quite imposingly the entire academic potential of a given student based upon the skew results of one test.
