RE: Examination

in #education7 years ago

Like they say, 'examination is not the best test of knowledge' my question is how then can knowledge be tested if not through examination.

How well we fair in an examination shows how well we prepared...

Thanks for sharing @doublecrown

When we use the word "best" it means we are comparing things, in other word we can get something better than the best. One of the reasons why examination is not the best test of knowledge is because it is possible that a student might be sick during or towards exams which could have negative impact on his performance.
Education experts therefore decided to use continuous assessment to bridge the gap.
Secondly, the volume of work would not have been much with continuous assessment.
I agree with the statement.
Thank you for always sharing your thought with me @korexe
