Examinations - has it killed education

Hi friends.

As per the question, my point of view, yes examination kill education, because most of our parents think that education is the way to success, with that they force us to get good marks in the exam, so every student has own abilities to study, they can't force us to study if we are not interested, with that some students surrender their life, and another point is that it depends on us, how we are going to face exam if we are interested in the study and we had prepared well then there will be no tension, so friends we have to make our choice that make us happy.

Hello guys.

According to me, the examination is not to way check the abilities of students. Learning power had been finished by examination.

If a student did hard work before the one-day exam he will pass his exam but he will not have perfect knowledge. Many students are frustrated about the exam.

According to me, Yes, examination has killed education, especially in India. It's because our education system solely concerns more about theories than practical knowledge about the subject. The innovate ideas of the students are buried inside.

The students of this generation go on completing the whole syllabus one night before the exam, they just memorise the concepts and don't understand the practical implementation of them.

Parents pressurise their children to get good grades and keep on comparing with other students, which causes anxiety, depression and frustration.

So, I think exams should be a test of knowledge and shouldn't turn to be the reason of depression.

Hi friends.

According to me, everything has both good and bad side. Yes, all the students are not in the same category. Some of the students they like to read and prepare for exam and accordingly they sit the exam, they get their result and some of the students they are not very attentive only at the time of exam they read and manage their exam and maybe they pass. But some of the students they are very regular sometimes they get upset because of maybe he or she not get the marks as per their expectation but those not regular their study he/she gets good marks. Sometimes we see some of the students they are very nervous maybe they are regular but at the time of the exam, they can't compete maybe they fell ill. But without education authority cannot get the chance for the next class. Actually we see some of the students they have very good knowledge and very regular in their study but at the time of exam they don't get results as per their expectations but some of the students they don't want to read but at the time of the exam, they get very good marks. As they get the good marks they can get a chance anywhere but fewer marks he will not get chance I e sometimes students get upset.

Good afternoon to all.

Personally, I think, the examination has killed the talent of a lot of students because still some students have that kind of knowledge which they expressed more freely through practicals than theory. Lots of students only getting marks than theoretical knowledge and at the time of the interview they failed because at that time your practical knowledge matters and that you can express freely because you experienced it. If exams conducted then they should focus 20% on theory and 80% on practical including viva.

Thanks.

Hello friends,

I'm Priya from VLB.

As this topic examination - has it killed education,

OK, I'm going to express my point of view and I would like to state my opinion,

The examination is not judging our knowledge. This is a temporary to increase our confidence level. Many students have a lot of talents. So examination is one step in our education level. But it is not our life. To show any talent to achieve our success.

Thanks for giving the opportunity.

The examination is a basic thing which should always available. If we put deep insight in our education, course is designed such way that will produce worker. This is a scent of british traces on our education system and examination too.

Eg, a stone age man want to teach his son about procedure to make wheel. His desire is to make his learn intuitively so he can bring advancement.

That's how technology have been brought over period of human evolution. Examination should focus on intuitions, how well student can utilize his concepts. Most of student prepare themselves for exam, not for subject. Therefore, exam should be designed such way that it will motivate student to take deep insight un subject.

In support of the following points, I believe the method by which an exam is conducted has downgraded the value of the subjects taught to us. It's just a practice of memorizing and vomiting the content in answer paper which gets evaporated immediately.

Of course, our curriculum needs major improvements, but the basic knowledge shouldn't be ignored at any cost. That's a different discussion altogether.

What I would suggest is that schools should give all the necessary tools required to solve a problem given in an exam and let the students deduce the solution by applying their knowledge gained during lectures.

I Don't think so, Examination is the way for a student to express their capabilities, although its never about that study one night before exam and to vomit everything other days, We learn from exams many things like how to be punctual, how to finish our work in time, how to prepare for something important to get the good result, Being competitive is not the crime, competition is important not only in exams but also in real life that this person is doing good things I should also do this kind of things, we should get motivated with the good things around us.

And we talk about the student committing suicide is because of the pressure they fee, l not to get good rank and we as a student we should understand that only one examination can't decide our abilities, there are bulk of opportunities waiting for us.

No, The Examination hasn't killed. Our generation student are interested in lot of practical knowledge. They are getting bored in sitting four walls. So taking practical exams are better then theory exam. By practical exams they can improve the skills and can discover more things.
