"assessment" in arts, PE

Oh, for pete's sake. This is idiotic on its face. Do we really choose to learn something for a score? In that case, test the football players to see if their knowledge of the game has 'improved'. If not, either cut them or disband the team. Only logical, right? Aren't we supposed to follow the data?
