The issues with these sorts of evaluations are inherent in their design. By sitting for an exam, some will have enhanced performance, some perform the same, some (because of anxiety or other reasons) will have their performance decrease.
They possess the knowledge and skills, but having a sit down MC exam reduced their ability to recall or think critically. I don’t think that’s hard to understand. My concern is, how would anyone administer a test at that scale and not introduce biases? Haven’t even started talking about the issues with test question writers.
Every method used by modern public “education” has been shown, time and time and time again, to be the WORST methods for teaching or evaluation. Even by “scholars” and their “research” (I’m a PhD at a university - yes, I work on a ship that is sinking). Yet we continue to use those methods because … I have no idea why, unless we want to purposely ruin children.
There no evaluation of IQ or learning in a civics quiz. If you don't know who your elected representatives are or what the legislation that you're supposed to decide on works, then you shouldn't be voting. Methodological discussions about learning don't apply, this information is available outside of government indoctrination daycare centers.
On that topic, if you knew me, your know I'm a fierce proponent of home school. The Humanists funded by robber barons designed government centers to replace family and church with government and state, to prepare compliant and obedient workers for the factories (see The Why Files on YT for a great breakdown of this Rockefeller initiative) and for the "inevitable" consolidation with communism. To accomplish this of course it's necessary to do away with critical thinking and knowledge of one's natural rights, to replace facts with mutable feelings to be directed by mass media programming, etc. But that's still not impacting a plain civics quiz yet. The awake will pass it and the rest will catch up eventually.
