I didn't and the article certainly didn't say anything about university entrance examsesque tests for five year olds.
They said frequent testing, and the more tests you have, the less important each individual test becomes. If you have a test every week in every subject, then at the end you won't need a gargantuan test that supposedly summarizes a couple of years of knowledge.
You have a ton more data to look at a student from.
I don't see why you would ever want NO testing. What you want is CONSTANT testing, like we have Google Analytics on all the time, not just for 2 hours to 'test' some situation.
- Jun8 16y agoI never proposed having no tests (so you're no stranger to strawman arguments after all :-). My point was that constant testing was wrong. Judging by your naive comparison to Google Analytics, I think that you haven't been subjected to a brutal regimen of constant testing, starting at 7, as I was.
