I feel like this rule is very misunderstood. You’re not allowed to give African American Students IQ tests as a placement for special education. This is because of how biased the test questions can be regarding culture. Parents can sign a waiver to have their child tested for GATE., and there are a ton of other tests that can be used to test ability to learn, for special education purposes. The best answer is to update and change the IQ test questions removing the biased questions, but the protocol hasn’t been updated in a while. These tests aren’t just biased by race however, they also seem biased towards SES and experiences. If a student doesn’t have exposure to certain experiences they won’t score well on some of the questions.
Sounds like a failure of the parents as well as the SpEd program that the young man near the end of this podcast was stuck at a 3rd grade reading level. So sad.
This whole episode is nothing more than Marxist propaganda. So sad. There was a time when Radiolab used to be great. I'll just point out 2 things of the dozens that screams out. If the Nazis used IQ tests to weed out inferior genes, the Jews would never have been persecuted. Ashkenazi jews have the highest IQ of any ethnic group in the world. This is proven and documented. Also, if the IQ tests were based on white and european culture, why do East Asians score so high? As nations, East Asians have the highest average IQ in the world.
Are you kidding me? Marxist propaganda? Who made this kind of propaganda? In west, people only know Karl Marx is a devil the same as Hitler and Maxist is a devil the same as Nazi, but why, no one knows. LOL
agreed. I will say, Their poison episode recently was good...but yes, IQ is huge and somewhat I would say important...so, Radiolab...ya didn't nail this one...Don't worry. We give 2nd chances...PLEASE...don't be too woke here!!
@@alexswedenborg1856 isn't it funny how the people that seem to care most about IQ type like they have a sub-100 IQ maybe you should listen to every episode in this series so you might learn a thing or two about the MANY ways that IQ is a highly flawed tool, rather than having a knee-jerk reaction where you cry about wokeness.

~ How is math bias? Black kids do poorly on math too.
@@leewhitaker538 That's a simplistic point of view. Very simple.
Yes it is still in place and is affecting many families in CA.
This is a pleasant surprise.
