THE Journal: Even though the 2015 Every Student Succeeds Act was supposed to address inadequacies of educational accountability related to federally-mandated standardized testing, a recent research project has found that, overall, states are still using the same large-scale student assessments that were in place before ESSA.

States are also still using teacher evaluation systems that are "the same or slightly different versions" of the systems they had in place before ESSA.
