Not Another Test
A. B. C. or D.? Standardized testing limits a teachers ability to educate students specific to their needs. I've had this view towards standardized testing since it first came into my life and I think writing my RBAA paper on this topic will help me understand more on the subject. Some opinions I hold right now are the fact that students in different geological areas require diverse education, every teacher has their own way of teaching, and the fact that by standardizing tests we are lowering the bar. While these points are just opinion at the moment I'm looking forward to finding the evidence to support my thoughts. However, I'm not hoping to only feel justified. Through this assignment I know there will be evidence in support of standardized testing and gaining some broader knowledge as to why will be very helpful. I'm a second education major and doing this research will be very helpful in my upcoming career.
