Could you summarize or comment on the following article?

In 1192 the state of Indiana set up a board that was to teach and license teachers throughout the state, this board was to decide how they were going to do just this, they used the first year to decide what needed to be done then in 1994 they decided that teacher's would be tested on their license would be based on a performance review. Now they have decided that it just would not be a one time thing that these teachers would be tested throughout their teaching career. This way they would stay current on all things.
