Chapter 10

After reading this chapter, I still have the dwelling and belief that standardized testing is not the best way for children to be evaluated and for different countries to be compared with each other. I don’t think that this is the best way because not all schools in one nation learn the same materials and use the same textbooks let alone all schools in the world. So how can all students be evaluated on a test on certain subjects when they do not learn the same materials? I think that the only way to internationally compare schools and compare schools within one nation is if all individuals learned the exact Sam materials. I know that this point returns back to the question of whether or nf whether or not there should be a standardized textbook or all school through out the world, but I don’t believe that will ever happen. I just don’t think that it is fair for all children to be compared on a test when the isn’t a standard on the materials that they learn.
