46. Competition for high grades seriously limits the quality of learning at all levels of education.
Agree:
- Encourages students to be excellent test-takers and not actually learn the information
- Those that would seek a deeper understanding of a topic/subject are demotivated
Ex: Medical schools with accelerated programs
Disagree:
- Motivates students to do well
- Grades allow teachers to decipher areas that students are weaker in and adjust the course plans accordingly.
