Absolutely. I mean, probably the worst thing about standardization in teaching is the suppression of intelligence, which brings us back to the original post, and its most valid criticism: should teachers be evaluated by an administration that is corrupt?
Honestly, my public school education did virtually nothing for me, and I was often bored. The sciences, because of their rigour, maintain an element of seriousness that I enjoyed, but the humanities were brutal, except for a few scraps of Shakespeare.
