Sinopsis

Overemphasizing test scores as measures of achievement is potentially harmful to education. The contributors identify key traits such as mindset, motivation, social skills, creativity, and entrepreneurial spirit that students, teachers, and schools need to acknowledge and cultivate. Educators are asked to shift the evaluation paradigm to focus on a multiplicity of skills necessary for success in the 21st century.

Cr�ticas

"In Counting What Counts, Dr. Yong Zhao and his co-authors are freedom fighters for a more humane and effective educational system. They employ the weapons of history and research to overcome the tyranny of the test. They advocate for a new world order, with assessments based on human talents and diversity." -- Dr. Milton Chen "Senior Fellow, George Lucas Education Foundation"
