While in some cases multiple choice can be used to test students’ knowledge, it has come to be used as a stand alone metric especially in high schools. Students are placed in the box of four potential answers. Multiple choice encourages a regurgitation, not meaningful learning. Even when students graduate from high school they are told to take an even bigger test, which gives them a number by which their value is determined. I wish for a school in which projects, essays, art, and discussion replaces these bureaucratic notions of success.
