Bill Ayers - The Obsession with Testing

The video discusses the inherent value of students and critiques the current obsession with standardized testing and performance metrics in education.

Instead, the focus should be on understanding the whole educational environment, including relationships and curiosity, rather than reducing success to simple metrics.
