[...] It's not something we're very interested in this state because if we're going to have to assess students 64 00:09:24.960 --> 00:09:27.990 Chris Reykdal: and we do think there's a better way to do it, hopefully we'll get into that… 65 00:09:28.230 --> 00:09:40.770 Chris Reykdal: We want to be reliable and valid and we want to be able to tell powerfully the story of what has happened over the last y.
