Just last week, Cambridge Reversal suddenly announced the cancellation of all international exams for May-June 2020! As soon as the news came out, parents and students were all shocked by this, but the shock was more about the question - how to get the admission results required by the university?
After calming down, rational thinking tells us: no matter how the outside changes, for every student, the basic learning skill of mastering and learning to use knowledge to solve problems will never change! Therefore, before waiting for further news from CAIE, our school decided to organize students' study, review and participation in the stage of examinations in a planned manner according to the original process. What is different is that all the processes are carried out online, and this week Meilun students ushered in an unprecedented online exam!
How to ensure that online exams are fair and impartial? Confidentiality, supervision and collection of examination papers are key.
In this regard, school leaders, subject leaders and teachers of various subjects brainstormed ideas in various small seminars. Use your spare time to continuously test ZOOM, Tencent, DingTalk and other Internet celebrity software, carefully design each step, and ensure the operability of every link of the entire exam. Finally, with the active cooperation of departments and teachers at all levels, the first online examination of Meilun International Education officially started on Monday this week and is proceeding smoothly.
In the examination room, students write hard, think carefully, and basically answer in good faith. In addition to the invigilators, parents are also very helpful! Some parents even take leave to supervise their children's participation in the exam at home, and assist their children to install mobile phone cameras to record the whole process of the exam in accordance with the requirements of the school, so as to make the examination room transparent during the exam and ensure that the whole exam is more fair and just!
This online exam is a very challenging and extraordinary experience for all the teachers and students of our school. Although there may be various temporary situations and difficulties during the examination process, all Meilun people have the determination and confidence to deal with these difficulties, and hope that with the joint efforts of all teachers and students, this online exam will eventually be a complete success! As a means of assessment, the fundamental intention of the examination is also to allow students to better understand their own learning, find learning problems from the assessment, and fill in the gaps. On the other hand, the teacher team can also fully control the learning dynamics of students, so as to better arrange future teaching guidance.
Finally, during the epidemic, classes have been suspended and the spirit of learning has not stopped, and I hope that every student can still maintain the original intention of learning at home, not arrogant and impatient, and spend every day safely and steadily!
