Sweetwater teachers criticize too many tests
What is of interest is the deeper, more profound question: Why is all this testing going on? What of the regimentation of the curricula, nationwide, and the elimination of history? Chalmers Johnson said, "Americans know so little history, they cannot connect cause and effect." That's true. Dr Rich Gibson from SDSU said, "The Education Agenda is a war agenda, a class war and empire's war agenda." He said that about nine years ago and he is still right. Schools are little more than human munition factories, depending on your birth class, parental income, of course. So, this article is not on point, but a diversion from the more significant point that must be made as the corporate state emerges, in schools and out.— September 22, 2011 11:53 p.m.
