If you're like me, you believe that the Question is more important than the Answer (page 40). These days, we live in a culture of the standardized test. We have "course objectives" and "learning benchmarks" and we expect everyone to know certain things at certain points -- either by age level, class level, or course level.But who's asking about students' ability to ask questions, to think? Who, in other words, is asking about students' ability to be creative?
I have the feeling that there's no value placed on creativity any more, but creativity is essential to learning.
