success achieved.” Standardized test scores shouldn’t determine whether or not a school should exist. The problems may not rest in the school, but rather in the students. Teachers might not have the resources to teach students, personal problems might stop students from succeeding, or the school, in general, the standardized test can be more biased . Additionally, students might not be fantastic test takers in general, and the test could be culturally biased. The test scores show school…

While taking the Myers-Briggs Personality Test online, I found that my personality type was ISFJ (Introvert, Sensing, Feeling and Judging). This test was interesting to me because I have never taken a personality test ever in my life. To get an understanding of the type of person I am by taking this test, really helps me want to research more of who I am as a person. I will describe in detail the ISFJ through my eyes throughout this project. Needs work on the use of…

you have to take the class again. A Lot of kids that were my age when I had to take the STAAR test usually dreaded having to take a standardized test like the STAAR English II exam. I was no different, I was one of those kids who just wanted to get this test done with and move one. For a while this philosophy of mine worked, however that all would change when I ended up failing the English II STAAR test during my sophomore year of high school. Thus leading to a change in how I would view…

Drug tests should be required for all athletes. Students should have to take a drug test because if players don’t then the team will be more likely to fail. If everyone on the team passes the test then the coach won’t have to worry about the scores going downhill because of drugs. If school athletes really want to play sports they will not do drugs. Doing drugs will ruin the opportunity to earn scholarships, jobs, or even having a life in the future. Unfortunately, athletes may care about drugs…

Use of Standardized Tests in Education “If my future were determined just by my performance on a standardized test, I wouldn’t be here. I can guarantee you that.” A wise statement made by First Lady Michelle Obama on the effectiveness of standardized testing in our nation’s public schools (Last). The current use of such testing in the United States has proven non-beneficial to student education for the long-term in an unsettling amount of ways, including that of its unreliable measurability and…

child was getting sent to school and was not learning, what would you do? If I told you that your child’s school has the lowest standardized test scores in the area, would you want to withdraw your child? The school board is thinking about foreclosing your child’s school because they are not getting high enough standardized test scores. Due to their very low test scores the government is not funding the school as they should be funded. Without the money they needed from the government, they are…

learned that I needed to take two personality tests for the course. As I continued reading throughout our personality book, I became captivated on so many levels about personality psychology. I was scared at first to take these tests, then I thought to that these results would be beneficial in knowing and confirming my thoughts of myself. The two personality tests I took were the Five Factory Personality test and the Eysenck test. The five factor personality test gave me on Factor 1…

work on papers and take multiple tests throughout the year, or, to take a major test that applies for more than all of your average grades combined? A test that covers everything over a 36 week period is obviously going to be harder and more stressful than a test that covers curriculum that a student has just retained. Should we really be putting this kind of pressure on high school students? Myself, having already taken 3 of the 5 necessary STAAR tests in order to graduate high…

have to take standardized test? “If the purpose for learning is to score well on a test, we’ve lost sight of the real reason for learning” Said Jeannie Fulbright. Students should not have to take standardized test. Standardised test put too much stress on the students, we could be learning more and they say that it cost way too much. First, do the test put too much stress on the students? Students test almost for four weeks. We get tired of doing all of these test. Some people would say…

Throughout the year students have a tendency of stressing over a major standardized test by the state. These tests are based on how well you have done during certain grade level; it had been a type of test determined either you passed or failed. Although most schools in Florida have made students take these standardized test such as the FCAT (Florida’s Comprehensive Assessment Test), it does not measure the knowledge of a students. During the school years, students and teachers are both…
