A music video that we had to watch about TAKS (Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills) or (Teachers Artfully Killing Students). The test is near impossible to fail and many people don't even miss a question.
Whatchoo know about TAKS?

Re: Whatchoo know about TAKS?
We have a very similar test to that in Florida called the Fcat. You would think no one would fail it but like a quarter of the idiots down here do. I literally slept for an hour with an hour and a half limit and not only finished, but I only missed I think 4 questions out of 100.
Funny video though.

Re: Whatchoo know about TAKS?
The big problems with there sorts of tests, is that they don't test the teachers nearly as much as they test the students. Oh! And the teachers get to fail several times and re-take their tests. I have never understood how they can have standardized tests but not standardized teaching and educational resource allotment. Messed up, big time.
Well, I don't care if it rains or freezes,
Long as I have my plastic Jesus
Riding on the dashboard of my car
Through all trials and tribulations,
We will travel every nation,
With my plastic Jesus I'll go far.
