Judging from recent times of how technology has continued to make things much easier, I will say that more and more students are getting smarter because of how they are paying more attention to technology. Although most schools curriculum systems has not changed entirely, but many have embraced new ways of teaching and impacting on the students, inculcating some parts of technological methods which keeps making things more easier.
Many students are getting smarter and gaining more knowledge everyday through technology which is why I believe that in no time long the traditional ways of writing examinations will need some changes to align with how the world 🌎 of technology and how fast pace its taking. All most schools needs is to go along with this era of technology because children are even aware of how importance they need to move with time which will also involve hard work for those who wants to do more using technology as a means.
I could see most big established schools 🏫 who has taken some new steps in allowing their students write and submit their examinations through their Laptops 💻 which keeps improving a good and accurate work flow for the teachers and the schools while also making things so easy for the students because of how paper 📑 work cumbersomeness is being reduced since the school will just post the examination questions in a link, and the students will just open the link to get and answer the questions. These can come in both objectives and theory questions.
The traditional way or system of studying 📚 I feel might really have affected many students before this technology era especially the less smart ones who will read all night and still ends up not grabbing something tangible to write ✍️ in the examination hall. In other words, they worked hard but was not smart enough to devise a strategy that will work for them. While most smarter ones might use reading learning strategies to choose the subjects they know very well, read them over thoroughly. And many who were smart enough then will finish up in school and still have no job when they come out of school 🏫. These were all big time set backs with rules we don’t need as many suffered those past eras.
I see traditional system of education being stepped up with some technological methods to enable students catch up with what is happening in the world of technology instead of them missing out due to the schools want to stick to old methods of writing exams and miss out, because in my days of schooling, it was never easy for a student to graduate and secure a job immediately, but technology has made it so easy for many students to work online while still even in school 🏫. This is one bomb 💣 from technology many students are enjoying. And many are also studying online courses to help themselves once they are out of school instead of furthering immediately for Masters or Phd which was the trend in the traditional system days for the sack of securing a job one is not even sure of then since jobs were limited.
However,my take and suggestions stays on technological systems being introduced continuously in schools. The exams we take as students are just for trial of how far we know what we have been taught or read, testing our efforts, strengths and brilliance. This means that if a student did not study properly or does not know his/her way around a question, there is no any magic to answering the questions and passing the examination. So even if the students are left with there phones 📱or other devices, it does not make any difference because the questions has a pattern which must be followed in answering. The internet answers will never be the same with what the teachers or lecturers are expecting from the students. So it all still boils down to being smart and at the same time paying attention to concepts.
We are all aware of how the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) as a technological system has taken over the internet, but I still tell you that those who are not smart can not use AI proficiently. Its not by just saying , but by witnessing because the AI needs commands which many who are not intelligent and smart can not do. The use of AI is not just the copy and paste but a more vigorous involvement.
In conclusion, its very important our educational system begin to incorporate more of technological systems and use in schools as this will help most students become mire aware and improve in the use, going with how fast pace the world 🌎 is moving in technology and innovation.
