I am most interested in finding out if anyone came out of a test or exam and said to themselves " I enjoyed that!!" . Behind this is my desire for everyone to test themselves repeatedly. I know that many people will shudder at this thought.
School tests? Passing tests later in life brings enjoyment.
because then you realise that enjoyment really is an integral part of learning?
@Mcflewster 1000%. I’m a lifelong learner.
I have never said I enjoyed that but I have had a few smiles.
'Smile' means that a bulb lit upon in your brain and you had become "enlightened.
I recall learning early, as a teacher...that there's three levels of testing and learning...
1.Too easy/trivializing.
2. Just right/challenging.
3.Too tough/demoralizing.
The trick is to teach at the second level; otherwise you're going to lose students....and if you're a student taking a test or a class that's on level one or three...you'll quit or give up early.
