Any teacher knows students can and will come up with the weirdest answers if they don't know the right ones. This bill would mean no teacher could mark any answer wrong on an evolution examination. Great for students, bad for pedagogy. Yeah, that part was a real winner. Any teacher knows students can and will come up with the weirdest answers if they don’t know the right ones.
