Abstract
More often than not, in the school set up, it is the
product that gets rewarded instead of the process.
The final assessment paper becomes a statement
of capability instead of being a statement of
progress. What is happening wrongly influences,
and sometimes overshadows, what can. If a child
is not reading, we say that the child cannot read.
Most times, this inaccurate conclusion stems from
a belief that a parent or educator might hold about
the idea of capability. The belief might be that some
children cannot learn, or some children cannot learn
a particular subject, or in a particular way or that
some children just do not want to learn.
