Education systems all over the world are based on the idea that students get and remember information from teachers and books. These systems test
this knowledge with standardized tests which compare students to each-other. They only test the
kind of information which is possible to measure in
tests. The goal is
gaining information, not developing skills by which to use and make information
. Unlike the old style of education where people
remembered things in
order to pass tests and get higher scores than other students, the modem
world calls for a new kind of education in which the
focus is deep
understanding, creativity, and information management skills.

In the opening paragraph, the line that most clearly defines the author's claim is:

"Unlike the old style of education where people remembered things in order to pass tests and get higher scores than other students, the modern world calls for a new kind of education in which the focus is deep understanding, creativity, and information management skills."

This line highlights the shift in education from rote memorization and test-taking to a focus on deeper comprehension, creativity, and practical application of knowledge. It emphasizes the importance of developing skills alongside acquiring information, aligning with the idea of education for understanding and skill development rather than just knowledge acquisition.
