Extract from the article:
In a recent development, a NEET candidate
filed a petition alleging that a question in the physics section related to
'radioactivity' was out of syllabus.
The petitioner argued that this topic was
not included in the prescribed syllabus for the exam. However, the Delhi High
Court has dismissed the plea, stating that the question
was within the bounds of the syllabus, thereby upholding the integrity
of the examination process.
This incident sheds light on the importance
of aligning examination questions with the designated syllabus to ensure
fairness and transparency in competitive exams like NEET. It also underscores
the challenges faced by candidates in dealing with unexpected or disputed
questions during high-stakes assessments.
My
Take:
Blog
Title: Exam Malpractices ? No More !
The issue of fairness and integrity in
exams is paramount, as highlighted in the recent NEET case where a candidate raised
concerns about an out-of-syllabus question.
This situation resonates with the need to
uphold the sanctity of examination processes and prevent malpractices.
As mentioned in my blog post, advancements
like IoT can play a crucial role in curbing cheating in exams. The case of
disputed questions underscores the importance of maintaining a level playing
field for all test-takers.
Call to Action:
To the examination authorities and
policymakers :
Whereas SYLLABUS cannot be done away with,
it is high time that we ask of ourselves :
“ By placing an undue emphasis on a student
to ‘ learn by heart ‘ , entire chapter of a Text Book on a given subject, are
we turning our students into some kind of a HARD DISK – an information storage
and retrieval DEVICE ?
Dear
Parents / Teachers / Principals:
By
studying answers to syllabus-related questions, your child can excel in their
exams.
In
this age of Artificial Intelligence (AI), that is just not enough. Your child
must learn to THINK. She must
become
Curious - Inquisitive - Creative.
They
must learn to ask: WHY - WHAT?
