This site is a great site for those looking for a non bias site about the plan. This site is one that shows the reason for the plan and how it affects those in the education field. It states that everyone will be held accountable in this plan. This site does not seem to be created for the purpose of arguing for or against the plan, just to show who is affected by it and how they are going to be affected with the plan.

In order to develop an opinion on the No Child Left Behind legislation one needs to fully understand the plan. This is one site that can help one learn about the plan and all the details it entails. Allthough Wikipedia is not the most intellectually backed site the No Child Left Behind page does a good job of explaining the plan and showing the 8 year history of it. One can see the positives and negatives of the plan and how it effects different people.

This site is a pretty bias site on what is wrong with the plan. It gives good information about the plan, like the wiki site, but is in strong support of repealing this plan. This site strongly discusses the negative effects of the plan and puts down almost eveything about it. Regardless of the biasness of this site it provides a strong opinion that many have on the issue. The opinion is backed and is a well done website.
