Max
Roosevelt, the author of this article, has gathered
together very powerful quotations from those in academics, including
the author of the study, and from students. These are a few from those in
education: |
“They have become ultra-efficient in test preparation [in “their
K-12 experiences”]. And this hyper-efficiency has led them to look for a
magic formula to get high scores.” Aaron M. Brower (vice provost,
University of Wisconsin-Madison) “Students often confuse the level of effort with the quality of
work. There is a mentality in students that ‘if I work hard, I deserve a high
grade.’“ James Hogge (associate
dean, Peabody School of Education, Vanderbilt University) |
