Too Many Tests

Submitted by Walitia (not verified) on March 26, 2008 - 18:18.

The emphasis on passing standardized tests is really dumbing down our society. No one's being creative and students are learning just enough to pass a test. Play and imagination should be a part of learning at all levels and not just primary. We need more discovery in education and real learning can not be measured on a multiple choice test one day out of the year.
