On the Internet teachers have set plans or guidelines for other teachers to look at and get ideas on what to do for their classroom. I think this is a great idea for teachers to use especially for new and young teachers to get some great ideas. By using this tool, teachers could hopefully get better and new ideas on how to teach certain subjects or try new things with the students. Teachers can get hints on how they can give tests, or how to help the students become better test takers on the Internet. The web site http//www.schoolnotes.com showed many different ways teachers could help the students. The site gives teachers ideas on the best ways to give oral test, true and false tests, by giving the teacher instructions on how to successfully present the material. Class Webs are another way teachers and students can get involved with the Internet and technology; students can help their teachers create a web page for their class. Many teachers use the Internet to find Resources for the classroom. They can find many things for the class to do on the Internet like games and projects. I have talked to a couple of teachers when I worked for an elementary school in high school during my Junior and Senior year. I asked the teachers whom I worked with what they thought of using the computers in schools.
Examination is defined as "Ability of student for checking skills, IQ, progress, physical fitness, knowledge, ability of understanding skills and knowledge in particular field". Examinations are conducted just for checking skills and Thinking abilities of students. But, The definition of Examination in India is Quite different. Indian students are today just like robots. Education system in India is poor. Indian school books only includes information, theories and concepts.
There are lot of differences between Indian education system and developed countries Education system. It is obvious that, Exams are conducted in every country for checking the students thinking capabilities, skills. Developed countries like Unites states, Unites kingdom, Germany, France, South Korea, Japan conducts examination for checking student's problem solving skills, IQ, progression and thinking capabilities. But in India, Examinations are conducted to know "How much information students can memorize in the examinations". In short, Indian institutes, schools colleges conducts exams for checking memorization power of students!.
Only information, Theories, concepts are taught to Indian students. And, to check how much they can remember, exams are conducted. Indian students are just like machines. Because, they don't understand anything but they do everything. Today, there is no difference between Computers, robots and Indian students.
Examination system of India needs lots of improvement. Education system should be changed in such a way that, Every student should be able to understand the concept properly. Schools should show the practical of the theories and concepts that students have learnt. Practical knowledge is quite quicker and students can have the proper knowledge about any theory and concept.
Student in India have very low Problem solving capabilities which is not good for their own development as well as nation's development. Teaching should be done in such a way that, students should learn them properly. To increase problem solving capabilities of students, they should conduct examinations in which, there should be questions related to concepts they have learned.
India is country where the cheating happens the most. To avoid cheating in examinations, India should conducts it's High level examinations on computers. Instead of using pen paper, students will give their exams using keyboard and mouse.
Indian government should change their education system and adopt the education system like developed countries. Questions in examinations should be asked for checking student's problem solving abilities not for checking memorizing power. If the examination system and education system of India will be changed, then it will automatically make India developed country and rate of being unemployment rate will decrease.
