...Examinations — good or bad ? "Examinations" - This is a word that causes sleepless nights, a word can change a cheerful person into a nervous wreck. So, what are examinations, and how can they be any good? An examination can be defined as a detailed inspection or analysis of an object or person. For example, an engineer will examine a structure, like a bridge, to see if it is safe. A doctor may conduct a medical examination to gauge whether a patient is healthy. In the school context, it is the students who take the examinations. These are usually a series of comprehensive tests held at the end of each term, year or, in the case of public examinations, after a few years. One of the main purposes of school examinations is to improve the quality of education. From the results of the examinations, the teachers and planners of the curriculum will be able to gauge the extent to which the students have acquired the knowledge and skills of the course material. This would, first of all, provide an evaluation of their teaching methods, so they can improve them, if necessary. Examinations are also used as a yardstick for measuring the capability of the candidate, for further education or employment. For example, examination results are the main criteria when selecting students for entrance into universities. It is assumed that the examination results would indicate whether or not the student will be able to handle the course. In the case of employment, it is felt that the...

...16 Americans are required to take an exam to show they have the knowledge required to operate a vehicle as well as six months of driving with a guardian. Most see this test as satisfactory but with the driving seen on the roads every day I tend to believe otherwise. No matter the age of the driver there are bad skills being demonstrated whether it be the older gentleman going slow in the fast lane or not using the proper turn signal it would be the young kid who just got their license speeding everywhere they go. It is not everyone who has poor driving skills and for the people who drive safely a switch in how we regulate who is allowed behind the wheel could decide how we look at vehicles from now on. What needs to be changed so that safe driving will be a more frequent occurrence is not the way we issue licenses but how the general population is never re-examined on their driving skills after the age of sixteen. Would you be willing to take a re-examination test of your driving skills knowing that you would be saving lives by creating a safer driving environment? A re-examination of all drivers can make the roads safer for everyone. Currently there is only a re-examination process for people with medical issues or people with an increase in accidents due to older age. If there were to be a standard issued test given to drivers every ten years it would make roads less accident prone. People of all ages should be re-examined to ensure their driving skills are up to par although...

...that the purpose of human life was personal and spiritual growth. We are unable to grow towards greater understanding of our true nature unless we take the time to examine and reflect upon our life. Examining our life reviles pattern of our behavior. Deeper contemplation yields understanding of the subconscious programming, the powerful mental software that runs our life. Unless we become aware of those patterns, much of our life is unconscious pattern. We all have blind spots sometimes when I examine a chronic problem in my life, I have unsetting feeling that I must be missing something, but I can’t quite see what it is. We try to examine ourselves but none of us can use our backside (our shadow) That’s why Socrates’ method of self examination includes an essential element that becomes Socratic dialogue. Dialoguing with a close friend, a spouse a skilled psychotherapist or spiritual advisers help reveal those blind spot we cannot see by our selves. This quote is from Socrates believed that the purpose of human life was personal and spiritual growth. We are unable to grow towards greater understanding of our true nature unless we take time to examine and reflect upon our life. Examining our life reveals pattern of behavior unless we become aware of these pattern, much of our life is unconscious repetition however many times we are too busy with our life and work to contemplate fully our life’s pattern. According to Socrates we need to stop and evaluate so that we can spot our...

...Stacey Fischer 12/02/14 Analytical Paper #2 Michael Foucault Michael Foucault is one of the more modern sociological theorists of our time, relating to Marxist theories greatly. Foucault was born in France in the year of 1926. He became very well educated throughout his academic years. He followed in the footsteps of Emile Durkheim and many other French philosophers, and attended École Normale Supérieure in 1946. While attending École, he was greatly influenced by Hegel through his professor Jean Hyppolite and his "interpretation of his work" and Marx ideas through his professor Louis Athusser and his "structuralist readings (Gutting). Marxism contributes heavily to one of Foucault's earliest writings, the introduction to Dream and Existence by Ludwig Binswanger happened to be influenced by Heideggerian thought, and as a student of Heidegger, so was Foucault (Gutting). After finishing at École, he held a handful of different positions throughout the 1960s, at French Universities. Later in 1969, he received the upmost and highly respected position of professor of History of Systems of Thought. He worked this position up until he fell victim to AIDS and later died in 1984 (Gutting). One of Michael Foucault's later and most famous writings are Discipline and Punishment: The Birth of the Prison. Published in 1976, this book looks at and studies the genealogy of the modern penal system implemented. That is, prison is the heart of the modern discourse of punishment. Foucault socially...

...Section A 1. Summary of “Bad stress, good stress” “Bad stress, good stress” is an article, in The Times 2005, by Sacha Bonsor. The article deals with how to handle stress. Sacha Bonsor writes that stress has become common in modern parlance. In 2004, stress had cost the UK economy £13.5 billion. Dr. Ray also says that, the number of organizations contacting his charity to seek advice, has increased significant. Stress is, by definition, the way people react when they have a lot of pressure or other demands placed on them. Pursuant to Dr. Frank Bond, nobody likes the feeling of stress. But those who deal best with it, he says, have a high level of “psychological flexibility”. They put them selves in terrible situation to follow their goals. When people are stressed, they really mean that they are afraid of feeling afraid or looking stupid, Dr. Frank Bond says. According to lecture Clare Harris, the big problem is to recognize stress. If you want to live a long and healthy life, you may not avoid stress to either mind or body. 2. Outline of the various stress-related problems. Stress is claimed guilty in many problems. Some of those problems are e.g. family problems. Text three, “Stress relief” an internet article 2007, deals with family problems. “There is so much to do, and not enough time to do it all.” It tells that families have trouble to make the day function. We have no stress relief in sight, because we work harder than before . Stress can also leave us exhausted...

...OF ZAMBIA SCHOOL OF EDUCATION DEPARTMENT OF LANGUAGE AND SOCIAL SCIENCES DEPARTMENT NAME : LIMPO NAMAKAU COMPUTER NO : 11053909 COURSE : CVE 3020 LECTURER : MR. CHIDONGO PHIRI TASK : ASSIGNMENT (1) ONE LENGTH : BETWEEN 12 and 30 TYPED PAGES DUE DATE : 30th JANUARY, 2014. QUESTION : Critically discuss how the study of Public Legal Education would help school managers analyse the following; i). Public Nuisance ii). Negligence of girl child iii). Abortion Practices iv). Examination Malpractice Without rules and regulations, society would be impossible to have because freedom without boundaries results in anarchy which means total confusion. From birth, human beings’ lives, safety, health and peace are controlled by law. It is for this reason that this piece of work seeks to critically discuss how the study of public legal education would help school managers analyze public nuisance, negligence of the girl child, abortion practices and examination malpractices. According to Johari (1989), law is a set of rules which society develops for itself to control the behaviours of its members towards one another. Migel et al (2005) defines public as something that is not owned privately but in common, while legal is a word used to refer to issues, things, activities or information to do with how or what the law requires (Cooper, 1978). For a rule to be recognized as a law there should be a way of compelling people to obey it and this is done by imposing...

...activities accompanied with hectic schedule of classes with several lectures, studying, and of course, examinations. As students, it prime is their obligation and responsibility to do their part in making good, especially in terms of taking examinations. Examinations are given as a means of evaluating the students’ learnings throughout the discussions and lectures given. This is a part of the student’s education. Moreover, it is an assessment on both part of the student on how much they have learned from a subject, and for the instructor, if he or she has been effective in educating and imparting knowledge in his or her students. Students, regardless of their busy and hectic schedules, must take time in studying their notes, books, and other items related to their subject as their preparation for taking examinations, may it be in the preliminary, midterm, or finals. In order to do that, one must have good study habits and effective time management to avoid failing an examination. But, in some instances, most of the students, except for those who really have good study habits and follow effective time management, end up practicing last minute studying or most commonly known as “cramming”. Cramming before examinations has been the usual scenario observed and seen in most students, as their resort when they’re running out of choices, especially when they fail to practice good study habits and effective time management. This study technique, also known as mugging or swotting,...

...Should Examination Be Abolished ? Have you ever heard the shocking news about an Indian girl who committed suicide after have a bad result for Primary School Evaluation Test (UPSR)?. This happened because of the emotional distress and pressure that existed in her circumstances making this poor girl lost her sanity. This is one of the disadvantages of having a public examination. Public examination can be defined as a test is prepared by the ministry of education to test the performance of students and the examination will be conducted simultaneously throughout the country. For example UPSR , PMR , SPM and STPM. There are many disadvantages of the public examination. Therefore, I agree that the examination should be abolished due to several reasons which are examination are not reliable way of gauging the true ability of student, examination is not the best mean to evaluate certain skill of the student and examination is lacking of its validity. To begin with, public examination are not a reliable way of gauging the true ability of students. Many students simply memorise what has been taught and regurgitate the facts during examinations. In that respect, they are merely exhibiting lower order thinking skills as expounded in Bloom's taxonomy of learning. If student has a poor memory and fails a public examination, does it mean the student is not smart? . At best, public examination only seem to evaluate a student's ability to memorise and retain...

...Midterm Examination Calvin White Professor Garnita M. Selby, J.D., M. Div October 3, 2009 MIDTERM EXAMINATION 8. Discuss briefly why you believe character is necessary for ministry, how it is for good character and bad character are manifested in ministry. I believe a person should have good character because how can a person help others if he or she cannot make good decisions for themselves. As a leader in the ministry, a person should be humble, compassionate towards others, have a love for God and people, and he or she must be a trustworthy person. Character reveals the person’s inner self. What is his or hers motives, feelings, attitude and dispositions. Who a person is on the inside will reveal how he or she acts on the outside. Good character is formed by our listening to our parents. Parents taught their children right from wrong. Family members help in the raising of the children. Mentors are people that take an interest in others helping a person to learn right from wrong. The perfect role model is Jesus, Our Lord and Savior. Good character is produce when a person develops the fruit of the Spirit. (Found in Galatians 5:22). The fruit the Spirit are love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Living a godly life with values and morals, and being a caring, generous, and trustworthy person produces good character for oneself and others. Bad character...

...“Academic performance” is not a concept that is new, many social scientist and researchers alike have defined academic performance in various ways. Bruce Tuckman (1975) asserts that performance is used to label the observable manifestations of knowledge, skill, concepts, and understanding and idea. So performance is the application of a learning product that at the end of the process provides mastery. It is the acquisition of particular grades on examination; it shows or indicates the students’ ability, mastery of content, skills in applying learned knowledge to a particular situation. A student is generally judged on examination performance (Banquil et al, 2009). A student’s academic performance basically shows how well he or she has benefited from being exposed to an academic programme. Often this shows after an evaluation, done in terms of an examination, either at the end of a semester, session or even after the completion of the programme. Most universities use C.P.G.A, as a measure of academic performance. Grade systems vary from country to country. In the study Study Habits and Attitudes: The road to Academic Success by Marie Jean N. Mendezabal, Among the noted unfavorable study habits were inefficient time management, lack of planning and concentration in their...
