Quotes from the episode

Tests don’t hurt students—people with tests hurt students.

—Dawn Zimmaro

It’s not the multiple choice question that is problematic … it’s about how the assessment can be used.
—Dawn Zimmaro

The whole goal here is learning, not assessing.
—Jay Parkes

Technology has really expanded our ability to do some assessments and diagnostics in ways we haven’t been able to do in the past.
