 problem-solving, oral presentation and work-based assessments.
secondly

 makes a big problem.
Conversely
, students used only written
exams
 to analysis their abilities will have problem with practical assessments.
On the other hand
, we live in a fast-paced world, so written tests have some benefits, in some situations, we do not have enough time and opportunities

exams

this
. In conclusion, our decisions depend on the type of majors in universities or companies policy even peoples culture, to have solidly written
exams
 or have a practical assessment.
