Multiple choice

I agree with number 10.  Multiple choice is worthless.  I know you can write higher order questions but all they can tell me is whether it is correct or not.  I learn nothing about my students, and what they know.  They save time but htat's it.

I agree with a lot of what Will has to say about education.  I don't think technology is the end all be all that a lot of people do, but it is a great tool, and kids need to be taught how to use that tool.  There is more information at our finger tips than ever before, yet people know less than ever before.  That is a result of attitude and feelings about education not available resources.  Kids start out excited about learning and discovering and by the time they reach their senior year of high school that has been taken out of them, with a few exceptions.  I agree that a fundamental shift in our purpose needs to be addressed.
