I think it's important to get an objective feedback on your newly gained knowledge. While nobody wants to hear that they are not getting better after putting in reasonable effort, it's important part of learning.
Now if you use that test score to punish students, that's different...
- stephengillie 14y agoVery good point - objective feedback is important. How can we provide students with objective feedback without putting them through that intimidating testing environment?
- danielweber 14y agoLife is full of intimidating circumstances. If a child suffers anxiety from a "test environment," then it's good to identify that early rather than try to remove all stress from a child's life. I think we should largely get rid of grades. Schools should be about education, not about evaluation, but you need some evaluation entirely internal to the system.
