Thinking Outside the Bubble

Check out this terrific film made by Erica Enriquez created in 2013 while in her sophomore year in high at Poughkeepsie Day School. It’s about New York state’s standardized testing system, in comparison to Piaget’s theories regarding the cognitive development of young children.

  • I love that students from PDS have the opportunities to explore such a variety of topics, problems, ideas and opinions. Erica did a great job on this video and I hope she continues her studies of standardize testing and the development of young children in the future, so that she can make a difference.
