My Views on Examinations
In most colleges and universities the examination is used as a chief means of deciding whether a student succeeds or fails in mastering a particular subject. However, the examination is a poor indicator of students’ potential performance. Its side effects are also enormous.
To begin with, standardized tests can’t give teachers the true value of a student academically. Some students can receive straight A's easily only if they get to know exam techniques. What’s worse, since teachers are often judged by examination results, they struggle to fit in training their students in exam techniques. Academic involvement is not encouraged since students spend their time taking examinations.
In addition, the most undesirable effect is that examinations encourage bad study habits. As the examination score is the only criterion for his school performance, a student is driven to memorize mechanically rather than to think creatively if he wants to graduate with honors.
In fact, few of us admit that examinations can contribute anything really important to the students’ academic curriculum based on knowledge. If that is the case, why cannot we make a change and devise a new system which makes more sense than examinations?
