Quote

…teachers are required to stuff students with fragments of measurable knowledge as if the students had no needs—almost as if they were things. Education is defined as how many fragments of information these “student-things” can retain long enough to be measured on standardized achievement tests. Most competent teachers recognize, however, that this approach has little or nothing to do with what they consider quality education, but their input is either ignored or depreciated by the politically motivated standardizers and fragment measurers who are now in charge.
