The document discusses alternatives to traditional examinations in the education system due to various limitations of examinations. It outlines several proposed alternative examination methods including continuous and comprehensive evaluation (CCE), open book examinations, online examinations, take-home exams, and other modes. CCE involves evaluating students across cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains. Open book exams allow students to bring resources into exams but require utilizing resources and reducing reliance on memory. Online exams provide immediate feedback but have disadvantages like technology and health issues. Take-home exams give students more time but risk improper collaboration.
