Tests and examinations are a central feature of school systems in many countries. Do you think the education benefits of testing outweigh any disadvantages?

Formal assessments,

such

as tests and

exams

, are still prioritized by the educational system in many nations. There is an opinion, that

' knowledge quickly.

However

, I disagree with

this

statement, thinking that alternative ways to mark learners' skills have more advantages and

this

essay will explain why. There are some benefits to assessing school children's knowledge through tests and

Secondly

and parents to see if the young individual acquired knowledge that was given at school.

need to be considered as unique individuals,

whereas

formal assessments demonstrate the opposite, putting all

but are not interested in formal disciplines.

For instance

, in Russia, it was evident that many children who are good at music and playing instruments were struggling to pass formal examinations.

That is

why, I truly believe that more creative and innovative ways need to be embedded. In conclusion,

although

' learning abilities in a traditional way, I believe that

this
