Reflection on essential reading for week 12
This year, my school is trying to push students to revise what they have learnt in school by setting up an online assessment platform. After rearding an assigned English story book, students have to go online and answer 10 multiple-choice questions (eclass). By using this system, it is easy and convenient for teachers to monitor students' progress and get their results (statistic). However, teachers have to urge students to finish the online assessment on time. You know, students may have a lot of excuses, such as the computer doesn't work. Besides, only certain types of questions (M.C., Fill-in-blank, etc) are suitable. Open-end questions would be quite difficult for the system to gather data related to students' performance.
