The Scholastic Aptitude Test (SATJ does not test students* aptitude, judgment, ex perience and wisdom, Nader told the Northwest regional council of the National Council of Teachers of English on Sunday. Nader said the SAT also fails to test students* idealism, imagination, persistence, stamina and creativity Nader was critical of the New jersey-based Educational Testing Service, which distributes the SAT. Colleges use SAT scores to help determine whether a student has the potential for academic success. Because the service is a non-profit, tax exempt service, it has an unregulated monopo ly on student testing nationwide, he said. In addition. Nader said, students who prepare for the SAT are not required to analyze or criticize life around them !■ . "Students can go through 16 years -of education and at the end they don't know anything about negotiating their dollars in an economy for health, safety and economic value; they know nothing about studying City Mali; they know nothing about how to negotiate their civic rights through a process of change and challenge in the government. They know nothing about anything that counts." Nader said Me suggested that tear hers start a "civic skills" curriculum, "so by the time they get out of high school, (students) have some of the civic skills that are indelible in their own out of-school experience as well as what they learned in books and what they observed in the courts and in the legislature. He urged educators to spend time with their students to develop talents that cannot be displayed in a multiple-choice test. :ftiimrcnmrrrf : STUDENT SUMMER FARES Bangkok.*1013 Oslo. *799 Singapore.*705 London.*689 ; Tokyo.*710 Paris.*867 Hong Kong.*838 Frankfurt.*769 t Details at Valentine's Campus Travel Center EMU or call 687-8456 INTERNSHIPS can give you the edge in the career race.
