NYS taxpayers paid (and will continue to pay) $32 million, over 5 years, for a poorly written, shoddy Pearson product. Educators, parents, and students should be able to see these tests in their entirety AND NYSED should provide the detailed analysis, including the p-value and discrimination index, for each and every item. If they are oh, so rigorous, then open it up for scrutiny. You live by the data? Well, then you die by the data as well.
