[quote=Anonymous][quote]Anonymous wrote: The test taking is the smaller problem (since it takes relatively little time and you can opt out of it). The larger problem is with the repetitive drill-like teaching to the test, because for the schools a lot depends on the outcomes of those tests. I don't see how you eliminate this latter problem unless you change the way schools and teachers are evaluated. What would be meaningful measures of performance that do NOT involve student testing? And this is why all of the opt-out stuff is silly.[/quote] Please explain what your "why" is referring to. [/quote]
