Teachers not test inspire students - Courant.com: "Sure, students should be mastering content. Nobody disputes that. But aside from a few basics, most content knowledge in a field of study changes over time as thinking evolves and research emerges. What students really need to develop is resourcefulness, creativity, a passion for learning and the skills for learning how to learn, among other things.
By focusing on students' content mastery as the primary measure of teacher effectiveness, we miss the most important job of an effective teacher — to energize students to be passionate about the material and to develop a broad range of cognitive skills."
