Bill: Student Creativity in Learning Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: Kundrati Liberty Movement (KLM)
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: June 3460
Description[?]:
The purpose of this bill is to turn around the flawed idea of Standardized Testing as the central means of educating the Children of Kundrati. Standardized testing is a way to measure how much and what children are learning. That said, standardized testing should always take a backseat to critical thinking and encouraging creative and innovative thought. This way we assure not only a sound Democracy but also can promote young Prodigies and Artists more effectively from an early age to adulthood. |

Random fact: In cases where players introduce RP laws to a nation and then leave, Moderation reserves the discretion to declare the RP laws void if they appear to have fallen into disuse. In particular, please bear in mind that a player who is inexperienced with Particracy role-play and has joined a nation as the only party there should not generally be expected to abide by RP laws implemented by previous players who have been and left. |
