- \r\n
- Promotes inclusion<\/strong> – it acknowledges the physical, intellectual, cultural, linguistic and socioeconomic differences in students and tests them effectively on their abilities.<\/li>\r\n
- Eliminates bias<\/strong> – it ensures that no student gets an undue advantage over another. Undue advantage does not refer to better preparation, greater aptitude or more confidence in taking a test. It comes when the assessment techniques are fixed in a unilinear fashion.\u00a0<\/li>\r\n
- Establishes clarity <\/strong>– it removes ambiguity in question items, which ultimately affects the results. A question that is confusingly worded cannot bring out the right answer.<\/li>\r\n
- Focuses on the outcome <\/strong>– it helps teachers focus more on the goals they set for students than the methods they use to reach these goals.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Implement exam fairness with ease<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
