My Views on Examination
Nowadays the examination is used as a chief means of deciding whether a student succeeds or fails in mastering a particular subject in most colleges and universities. Although it is efficient, its side effects are also enormous.
On the one hand, examinations lower the standards of teaching. Since teachers are often judged by examination results, they are reduced to training their students in exam techniques. No subjects can be taught successfully if treating exam as a gole . On the other hand, the most undesirable effect is that examinations encourage bad study habits. A examination is not the only criterion for driving the students to memorize mechanically, but to think creatively instead.
In fact, few of us admit that examinations can contribute anything really important to the students’ academic development. If that is the case, why cannot we make a change and devise something more efficient and reliable than examinations?
考试我的看法
如今，考试被用来作为一种主要的手段，决定一个学生是否成功或不掌握一个特定的主题，在大多数高校。虽然它是有效的，其副作用也是巨大的。
一方面，考试降低了教学标准。由于教师往往根据考试结果来判断，他们是减少训练的学生在考试技术。没有人可以教成功如果治疗考试为目标。另一方面，最不受欢迎的作用是考试鼓励学习习惯不好。考试并不是推动学生机械地记忆的标准，而是创造性地思考。
事实上，我们中很少有人承认考试能对学生的学术发展起到非常重要的贡献。如果是这样的话，为什么我们不能做出改变，设计一些比考试更有效、更可靠的东西呢？
