Roberts, Rebekah Magdalena. Standardized Testing in Education: The Importance of Play in the 21st Century. Diss. Trevecca Nazarene University, 2019.
In regards to the study topic, this study is focused on looking at the relationship between the number of times children play, the standardized exam score, and the variable of anxiety. The study sampled a population of kindergarten children and the second-grade students attending an educational summer camp. The review was accurate in its information, citing survey tools, and conducting a great interpretation of the results. It then finishes by affirming that standardized exams have reduced the number of children’s playtime and anxiety due to its technicality hence improved education.
With educational institutions being the target audience, in this case, the authors of this source Roberts and Rebekah have used a soft tone that accommodates everyone interested in the subject matter hence an excellent source to make my proposal stronger. The article’s mission, in this case, is to advise parents to take control of their children’s free time while at home since the education sector expects them to spend more time doing classwork.
After understanding the content of this study, I realize that it will form part of my study objective since it addresses social issues that many tend to take lightly but are essential in society. The source will then help me bridge some of the gaps within the educational system of the United States, which are ignored but need some reviews.
