Teachers teach to the test
Unterstützendes Argument
1
#5262
Education defaults to an impoverished process of preparing pupils to perform well in tests—in which the test, and only the test, becomes the reason to teach and study.

Auszug -
Finals brings out the simmering discussion between the Skinnerite behaviourists who sincerely believe you train students to behave like learners in the hope they become learners…and constructivists who believe students construct meaning and learning for themselves and their teachers try to create the atmosphere where that happens. I’m a constructivist. And I don’t believe testing helps students create their own meaning which in turn becomes learning. In fact, I believe testing can be a crippling blow to the learning hopes of many pupils.
