Thanks, Bill. I'm confused on somethings, and I bet others on the list are,
too.

What is the relationship between the performance descriptors, the new
assessment tasks, and the ISAT? How will they be used differently by
teachers, principals, and school systems? What implications does each have
for improving science teaching and learning and for accountability?

Thanks.
