Summer is upon us, but the dread of exams is in the way. Exams, and tests in schools I see as quite pointless. If a teacher is to know your understanding of subjects, I think it should come from within the class discussions and homework of sorts. Test make students anxious, and worried, which is never good. It promotes almost like a dislike for a subject or for education in general which will cripple the learning process.
In my view, tests and every exam should be taken away, and students should not have to worry about them, and not worry for any hardcore studying required to pass, or particularly to excel. If the exams and tests are gone, the students should be more willing to learn, and shall see education more as a liberation of the mind than a labour.
exams.... why??
ReplyDeleteI hate taking an exam that isn't representative of what I've learned. I think if exams were fair, it would go a long way to make them less stressful.

I Agree but they would have to be replaced with a portfolio system to gauge if the student did the work and progressed.
