Whether formal writing examination is a good way to assess students learning?

There has long been much contention about the evolution of teaching methods, its effectiveness and growing emphasis on methods to class="assess">assess a learner’s performance. I partly agree with the statement as the class="formal">formal class="written">written examination class="is">is an effective way to class="test">test what students class="have">have learned in class but this method has flaws too which I will further explain in this essay. Throughout the world, the examination class="is">is an official sanction, indispensable method to force the learners to put in more effort, to stay motivated and strive for more energetic attempt to achieve the goal. In our contemporary school systems, class="formal">formal class="written">written examinations are organized at fixed intervals (quarterly, semi-annual or annual) to class="assess">assess the level of knowledge in students and in the case of failure, they are made to repeat the class. Through this conventional method, students are subjected to tests of control of the knowledge taught.
Through class="formal">formal class="written">written examinations, educators get a view of children who require informed assistance. In particular, the early diagnosis of deviation in student’s attributes and pedagogical methods of teaching makes it possible to identify and address the weaknesses before they become irremediable. having said that, the class="formal">formal class="written">written examination cannot gauge one’s level comprehensively. Often in such exams, the mere cramming of subjects class="is">is enough to score good grades which I think class="is">is not an effective method to class="assess">assess a learner’s ability and skills. The educators should think of other qualitative assessments tools and performance evaluation methods like oral presentation, group discussion etc. to class="assess">assess both learning outcome and quality of learning process.
