Standardized Testing: Just What the Teacher Ordered
Standardized testing of students means that all students are given the same test or same kind of test. Standardized testing can be stressful, but ultimately it is useful for both students and teachers. The studentsâ scores show the effectiveness of the teacher. If students do not show good results, the teacher can be held responsible. A studentâs scores also can be used by teachers to pinpoint the student's weak areas. Standardized testing makes sure that no student is ever ignored. Standardized testing also allows teachers to see how the student compares with other students in other schools or states. In this way, schools can pinpoint if the problem is with the student or with the school itself. Best of all, standardized tests allow students to be graded fairly. Students will no longer suffer because a teacher favors certain students. Instead, all students will be treated the same, regardless of their backgrounds or differences.
Standardized Testing: A Monster Out of Control
Standardized testing of students means that all students are given the same test or same kind of test. Standardized testing is often harmful to students. Standardized testing gives importance only to what the student puts down on their test. The overall performance of the student in other areas, such as art and sports, doesnât count. Studies have shown that standardized testing causes stress to both students and teachers. Many teachers only teach test questions. Teaching this way limits childrenâs imaginations and creativity. Standardized testing also does not take into account the different backgrounds that children come from and the different problems they may face. Such tests ignore the uniqueness and differences of students.

Which two parts of this excerpt from mary shelleyâs frankenstein reveals information about the setting? (it was on a dreary night of november that i beheld the accomplishment of my toils.) with an anxiety that almost amounted to agony, (i collected the instruments of life around me, that i might infuse a spark of being into the lifeless thing that lay at my feet. it was already one in the morning; the rain pattered dismally against the panes, and my candle was nearly burnt out) when, by the glimmer of the half-extinguished light, i saw the dull yellow eye of the creature open; it breathed hard, and a convulsive motion agitated its limbs. (how can i describe my emotions at this catastrophe), or how delineate the wretch whom with such infinite pains and care i had endeavored to form? his limbs were in proportion, and i had selected his features as beautiful. beautiful! great god! (his yellow skin scarcely covered the work of muscles and arteries beneath; his hair was of a lustrous black, and flowing; his teeth of a pearly whiteness; ) but these luxuriances only formed a more horrid contrast with his watery eyes, that seemed almost of the same color as the dun-white sockets in which they were set, his shriveled complexion and straight black lips.
