The impact of standardized testing on the learning experience is quite significant. Teachers are under an immense amount of pressure to produce results since funding is often linked to test scores. This puts them in a difficult spot, as they strive to educate their students while also trying to achieve good grades on tests. Unfortunately, this emphasis on test scores and the curriculum has led to a disconnect between educators and their students.

If we prioritize building relationships and fostering connections, we may be able to give our students a better chance at academic success.
