Reblogged from Cooperative Catalyst:
We know bubble sheets are unrelated to “real life”.
I think we made the “education thing” up by constructing much nonsense about the written word being the supreme method of sharing ideas and information.
I think we have forgotten that sharing experiences and doing things together are matters that (1) allow us to learn and (2) make us human.
I began asking a question of Paramedic and EMT students (HS grads/GED) to kick-start discussions about medical-legal issues.
I thought I would share this post this morning. I remember having such a love/hate relationship with the bubble sheet on those tests in school... You want to love them because they don't require a written answer or true knowledge on the question at hand. I could essentially get away with the 'best educated guess' if it was something I wasn't sure of. Or the opposite, which was hate it because the answers were so similiar that I'd end up stewing on that one answer, and over thinking it. And how much of that stewing and stressing was over something relevant in life today...that's the real question!
