The Pros and Cons of Fitness Testing

i want to end the episode with this really fascinating article by michael garay, who's the academic who i emailed about the lack of history on the president's physical fitness test. He says that despite these findings, widespread inaccuracies, negative student and teacher perceptions and potentially harmful practices, the authors remain apparently unshakable in their support for fitness testing. It also feels like we don't have a test once a year to see how well you can draw a still life, and then defund art educationrle an, there's a pretty clear connection here, from one to the other.
