Learning assessment is and has been done stupidly. I aced most of the tests in my math classes but only got "B's" and "C's" because I almost never did the homework. Did I learn the material? Yes, Did I get a good grade because I learned the material? No. Stupid. In my macro economics class I actually had a teacher tell me, in front of my classmates, that he had to take my grade out of the curve because I ruined it for the other students. And I had a Philosophy teacher who got angry at me because I questioned the concepts. In this post I use the term "teacher" very loosely. LOL

Hey, what a flash-back from my own PS days, oh, more decades ago than I care to admit.

I was usually 3 or 4 steps ahead of the teachers schedule in studying, and was even criticized once for doing so. Some people are taught and think they've learned a lot, and some are taught and have their eyes opened to how much they have yet to learn.

It was while I was driving from Florida, where I gave a presentation on education to citizens, that I heard from talk show hosts about the abuse by North Carolina High School social studies teacher Tanya Dixon-Neely towards a student who dared to challenge her diatribe about Mitt Romney’s alleged “bullying” incident from 1965. In response to the student’s reference to Barack Obama’s own admission in his book of having shoved a girl, the teacher yelled that students can be arrested for disrespecting President Obama. “President” (King?) Obama was beyond criticism to Dixon-Neely, unlike “candidate” Mitt Romney.
