My View on Examination-Oriented Education
Where there is education, there are examinations. In the drawing above, a student express his feeling:” I study. I take the test. I pass it, and then I forget what I learnt.” Though humorous, this drawing is thought-provoking and makes us think: Do students really benefit from exams?
There is no denying that test results can be used to motivate student to learn more. However, such examination-oriented education is fairly controversial and cannot achieve the expected goal to improve hard for the tests and get good results. Unfortunately, the minute they finish the papers, they seemingly forget everything they have learnt.
Hence , it is high that we reformed this examination-oriented education. Otherwise, there will be an increase in the number fo test takers who get high scores but cannot apply theory into practice.
