As a former school teacher and school administrator, I wish it were true that measuring outcomes was used extensively in education. Unfortunately, what predominates is measuring behavior or measuring rote recall. These teachers get good evaluations.
Teachers do the same thing to students.
They base their evaluations largely on whether or not they hear complaints or whether they hear that teacher's students as they walk through the hall. These teachers get evaluated negatively. The students are then free to forget the information. Real learning has not been measured, but, of course, teachers are evaluated often on how their kids do on tests. I always preferred to measure learning, or to have my students measure their own learnings.
