The	
  present	
  examination	
  system	
  focuses	
  on	
  
only	
  remembering	
  part	
  –	
  but	
  there	
  is	
  a	
  need	
  to	
  
focus	
  on	
  creativity	
  and	
  problem	
  solving.	
  	
  
Are	
  you	
  asking	
  questions	
  like	
  this	
  in	
  
examinations:	
  -­‐	
  	
  
a. Define	
  Consumer	
  Surplus	
  	
  
b. Define	
  Perfect	
  Market	
  	
  
These	
  types	
  of	
  questions	
  show	
  that	
  you	
  need	
  
to	
  change	
  the	
  examination	
  system.	
  	
  
Steps	
  for	
  examination	
  reforms	
  :	
  -­‐	
  	
  
a. set	
  your	
  goals	
  –	
  which	
  are	
  in	
  terms	
  of	
  
program	
  objectives,	
  course	
  
objectives	
  etc.These	
  objectives	
  
should	
  be	
  expressed	
  in	
  clear	
  terms	
  
(action	
  verbs)	
  	
  
b. Check	
  whether	
  these	
  objectives	
  have	
  
been	
  achieved	
  or	
  not.

  are	
  two	
  ways

  the	
  
systems	
  (which	
  is	
  what	
  we	
  call	
  as	
  
examination)	
  –	
  to	
  ensure	
  that	
  the	
  
student	
  has	
  acquired	
  skills,	
  
competencies,	
  attitude	
  and	
  expertise	
  
as	
  planned.	
  In	
  indirect	
  method,	
  you	
  
ask	
  the	
  industry	
  for	
  their	
  feedback.	
  
You	
  also	
  take	
  feedback	
  of	
  the	
  
students	
  about	
  teaching	
  –	
  learning	
  
process.	
  	
  
d. Examination	
  system	
  consists	
  of	
  
continuous	
  evaluations	
  which	
  are	
  
designed	
  to	
  ensure	
  that	
  the	
  students	
  
are	
  able	
  to	
  learn	
  and	
  apply	
  the	
  
principles.	
  	
  
e. Adopt	
  open	
  book	
  examinations,	
  
group	
  examinations,	
  projects,	
  case	
  
discussions	
  and	
  multiple	
  means	
  of	
  
evaluating	
  performance
