I don't have the answers. I'm not even against testing. I've just seen the kind of damage overemphasis on testing can do to education and want to see it end. When tests become a core part of how you judge someone's worth as an educator that educator is going to put all of their efforts into better test scores. The question is do test scores mirror the quality of education or do test scores just tell you someone's potential at performing well on a test?
