Add to this an ever-increasing emphasis onhigh-stakes testing and pass rates and the result is an increased focus on drilling students topass the tests, with little or no focus on developing conceptual understanding or cognitivecapacity. For future engineers this is a recipe for disaster, literally.Changing the quality of schooling is a long-term project, one that lies outside the scope ofmost academics’ activities.
