Many people believe that formal " pen and paper" examinations are not the bestmethod of assessing educational achievement.What is your view of examinations?

The quality of education should be properly controlled



All people admitted that taking care of the quality of education has been the most important because of its main role. In order to assess educational achievement well, the Government need to have a right method and one of a formula mentioned is formal " pen and paper" examinations. Some people said that it was not the best method. For me, I agree with this idea.

Actually, there are many benefits of this test way. Assessing through out " pen and paper" is the good way for teacher to check the deeply knowledge of a student. If the pupils undestand a lesson, they will present with a right way. In contrast, it is difficult for judge to read the answer sheet. For example, the difference between formal " pen and paper" examination and online test. I have a simple exercise that " my father has two pencils, I give three pencil to my father . How many pencil does my father have?".

When competitors present on the paper, they have to write that "2 plus 3 equal 5". However, they will only mark on the box that contains number 5 if they have an online test. No one can confirm that it was their thinking because it can also their guesses. Morever, more students are appreciated equal score in " pen and paper" examination than in multiple choice. No matter where contender understands, Judge will give score to competitor in essay and he will not be got any score in multiple choice, if his answer wrong.

Everything has both sides. Some students have the rote learning phenomenon. It is reason why they can get high score but they can not practice in fact. Beside that, student must assume the time to present the result so fewer form question are asked to students in formal " pen and paper" examinations than in multiple choice. There fore, teacher can't assess all. In contrast, creating different form questions in an exam is the best way to assess the ability of the students.

In conclusion, the formal " pen and paper" examinations are not the best method of appreciating educational level but it has many feasible things. I hope it will be supported and improved so as to become the effective way and education in many countries will develop.

Hang, your essay suffers from a lack of clarity in explanation. It is not coherent nor cohesive and causes the reader undue stress while reading it. Even after multiple readings, it is still difficult for the reader to assess what the meaning of your paragraphs are. An example of a confusing paragraph from this essay is:

No matter where contender understands,(...) , if his answer wrong.

This is one of the more extremely confusing presentations in your essay that begs the reader to ask you to explain what you mean. I think you are confused about what the purpose of the essay is. When you are asked about the pen and paper test, this is similar to an online test. When you are asked to do an oral report or respond to an oral question and answer exam, that is a different form of exam taking. Pen and paper is highly similar to online testing because computations are still required at least during the exam itself. Whether they submit their computations or not is up to the teacher or exam moderator.

In this particular paragraph, I believe you just miswrote the sentence, which made is unintelligible to the reader:

Some students have the rote learning phenomenon.

What is a rote learning?

I believe that your problem is that you are thinking in your native tongue and then translating it word for word to English without considering that what has a correct mean in your mother language may not have the same meaning in the English language. You need to practice thinking in English aside from writing in English. Thinking in English is what will help your work become more coherent to the reader and help you to improve your overall essay score.
