Standardized TestingOnline version For class by Ethan Ngai Mickey Man, standardized tests suck! I wish we could just do other stuff instead like art. Rory I know right? Standardized tests are too restricting and I don't learn anything because of it. Jack As a teacher, I agree. Standardized tests keep me from teaching what's important. Mickey I'd rather be learning about history that matters not just hard facts and dates. Jack That's right. Teaching to the test doesn't help students learn useful things applicable to life. It only teaches you guys how to take a test.
