[quote=Anonymous]If students were properly assessed with a pre-test before the unit and quizzed throughout the teacher would realize if there were concepts that were not making sense to students. The big, end of unit test is to be a final assessment, so if a student studied they should be okay. If anything, it seems students and parents want the assessments to be spoon fed. Students get upset if the test doesn’t look exactly like the study guide or if a question is in a different format than in the study guide. This is so sad to me as students should have higher level thinking! But instead the focus is on spoon feeding. Retakes are encouraging students to not work to their fullest potential at the get go — as illustrated by the PP math teacher who has interested students after the test.[/quote]
