There is a lot of talk going on today about tests and testing.  The problem, as this video talks about below, is that schools are geared towards creating university professors.  The video, taken from a TED conference, argues that tests are not geared towards creativity.  The big problem is that it seems only those who excelled in school want to be school teachers.

I think that fair tests are those were all students are allowed to excel.  I don’t exactly know the in’s and out’s of this, but I do know that testing needs to change.
