Education: No more standardized testing. I understand that tests are a way for teachers and ultimately the government to see how students in a country are learning. What they forget to put into consideration, however, is that each of us learns differently, so “standardized” testing can’t possibly demonstrate each individual’s ability. Children can be wildly successful learners but when it comes to testing, they simply go blank. It is proven to be unfair, unhelpful, and overall not the best way for most students to learn, and is especially harmful for those of us in the LD community.
