Do you know how many students relate to that fish? Swimming upstream in class never finding their gift.Curriculums are created by policy makers where most of them haven’t taught a day in their life, just obsessed with standardized tests, because they think bubbling a multiple choice question will determine success. That’s outlandish in fact these tests are too cruel to be used and should be abandoned. But don’t take my word for it. Take fredrick J Keely’s the man who invented standardized testing who said and I quote “These test are too cruel and should be abandoned.” Now I don’t have much faith in school but I do have faith in people. And if we can customize health care, cars, and Facebook pages then it is our duty to do the same for education, to upgrade and change. No more common core instead let’s reach the core of heart in every class. So stop making future engineers sit in English classes reading pointless stories, filling out pointless graphic organizers, and writing pointless papers when the only skill they will take from that class is communication. Let’s give every gift a chance. I know that sounds like a dream but countries like Finland are doing impressive things where they have shorter
