Dr. Tim and Dr. Johnny finally prove you CAN see the future... sort of. In this conversation with researchers Dr. Jamil Maroun and Dr. Christopher Christopher Tienken about their recent study, revealing how socioeconomic factors can eerily predict the outcomes of standardized tests. Their insights challenge the very foundation of these assessments, sparking a necessary debate on the role they play in our education system.

As the discussion unfolds, the Doctors walk through the methodology and findings of this groundbreaking research, shedding light on the systemic biases that permeate standardized testing. These guys don't just offer criticism, however; this research offers a beacon of hope by exploring alternative assessment methods that promise a more equitable future for all students. Dr. Slecker and Dr. Lupinacci skillfully navigate the conversation, making complex research accessible and engaging for all. They also highlight the real-world implications for educators and students alike, providing a clear call to action for those looking to make a difference.

Learn for about our guests:

Dr. Jamil Maroun, superintendent of Manville School District, New Jersey, began his career as an educator in 2005 by serving as a Social Studies teacher at Sayreville War Memorial High School. In 2013, he began his administrative career as the Supervisor of Science, Social Studies, and Library/Media Services in the North Plainfield School District. During his time in North Plainfield, he worked with his colleagues to evaluate and revamp the various curriculums that he oversaw, develop AP-level courses, partner with RVCC to establish Concurrent Enrollment Partnerships, and navigated the implementation of the Next Generation Science Standards.

Christopher Tienken, Ed.D. is an associate professor of leadership, management, and policy and education consultant. He has public school administration experience as a PK-12 assistant superintendent, middle school principal, director of curriculum and instruction, and elementary school assistant principal. He began his career in education as an elementary school teacher. Tienken is currently the editor of the American Association of School Administrators Journal of Scholarship and Practice and the Kappa Delta Pi Record.
