Just Passed Foundations of Education - jdavenport - 06-13-2007
I know there hasn't been a lot of threads for this test. I just took it today, and I got a 50 out of 94. You need a 46 to pass. I used IC, Wikipedia, and general web searches. I found that the test asked a lot of questions about what the primary activities for the State Board of Education and the local boards and stuff like that. Also there were questions about how teachers were paid and what teachers goals in teaching were in the 70's -90's. I didn't think IC really talked about stuff like that so you will want to research that with other sources. I passed, but I was sweating it and really felt it coul've gone either way. Good luck.

Congrats on your pass!!! I appreciate your feedback on this exam. I am studying for it now and was wishing there was more info about it on the forum. I bought a textbook that our local community college is using to help me study along with IC, but I am finding it pretty useless...I hope IC will be enough for me to pass.
