you failed to define the word "unreasonable"
If its reasonable to search everyone, all the time , then why bother having the amendment?
Look, this is ridiculous. I know nothing at all about writing tests, or about education in general
At least you're honest. So now you have a little knowledge, go back over your mindless rant and see if you can spot the errors.
When you write for an audience, you quickly come to understand that things you think are obvious aren't obvious to everyone
The audience are the students not some random shalshdotters.
The test is written for an audience, but that audience wasn't you, it would be obvious to everyone who payed attention in the class.
So then, it appears there’s no real relation between the pennies and the coffee cup, they’re just arbitrarily chosen icons used to test the understanding that a numeral (the 6 on the cup) can represent quantities of an item (the coins), and that one can do subtraction by converting the 5 coins to a number 5, which subtracted from the whole of 6 is the answer 1. Which is fine, as far as it goes, but nothing is gained from using coins and a cup, in fact it seems deliberately confusing!
How the fuck do you know the students weren't taught exactly this, with cups and pennies in their classes? If this is the way they were taught it then its completely trivial to understand what they are expected to do and comes down to simple number skills. i.e. exactly what they are supposed to do.
I’ve no background in education
You don't say...
Gee, Toto, I don't think we're in Kansas anymore.
