To begin
with, it is quite an arduous task for the teacher to keep track of student's learning progress and it would be obviously impossible for them to justify their final grades.
For example

Furthermore
, they get under immense stress from the workload and eventually either drop out or perform poorly.
Thus

it is clear that

In addition

exam

Thus

suggested that students should be given a chance to experience live learning by taking them on excursions and scientific exhibitions annually.
