Blog
In class we would write a blog on Blogmeister either telling people what we did that day in class with what we learned or an assignment for class.
Here is an example of one of my blogs.
Standardize Testing??
A Freshman in college Ankur Singh decided to write an article telling us about his problems about standardize testing and how it led to what he is doing now. He has decided to take a semester off of college so he can travel around the country getting students opinions and points of views and is going to make his own movie showing these. While doing this he's asking questions like: How does it affect their love of learning? How does it affect their self-esteem? What if what they’re truly passionate about isn’t measured by a standardized test?.
In my opinion in a way I kind of like what he is doing here. He is getting our point of view (the students) on how these test affect us. he wants us to have a say in what we do in school. How it shouldn't be a "political" thing it should be what helps us best with our learning. We should be expanding our knowledge in school with a way we decide. We should not have to take a standardize test that wont help us at all. As Ankur says "I don’t want to make this movie political. Because the issue here is so much more than standardized testing and accountability, it’s about our livelihoods".
Read his article and see what you think about what he is saying. Do you agree with him or not??
