Kids and tests, fairly anecdotal

There's a marginal relationship of this to Sept-Oct. Telling, but probably useless.


"Children learned and remembered an extraordinary amount of information about a school trip to a museum" even after a lengthy delay. The findings also showed that giving the children the opportunity to draw, significantly increased the amount of accurate information they recalled... These same children do poorly in recollecting information about the museum on a comprehension test designed by adults. In another words, what children learn from the museum is not in general what the adults are inclined to test them on or what the adults think they should be learning. More.
