A time to be wrong

Article Abstract:

The educational system is suffering from contradictory problems. On one hand students are being allowed to get away with errors that should be corrected in order to ensure that their egos are not damaged. On the other hand some areas of education are becoming too focused on testing and ensuring that students get everything right, thereby removing from students the opportunity to learn by getting some things wrong.
