testing practice Unethical Justifications: Favoritism: Exempting students without valid reasons or showing favoritism
is unethical, as it compromises the fairness and integrity of the educational system. Inadequate assessment.
Exempting students without proper evaluation might fail to identify their strengths and weaknesses, hindering their
overall growth and development the ethicality of exempting students from examinations depends on fairness,
empathy, and the alignment with the broader goals of education. Ethical exemptions should prioritize students'
well-being and provide reasonable accommodations when necessary, while avoiding favoritism and inadequate
assessment practices. 2. Explain if the privacy of the students is invaded through art works, composition,
chalkboard computation and oral examination. The privacy of students is generally not invaded through these
assessment methods if they are appropriately designed and administered Teachers and examiners should be
mindful of personal information and maintain a focus on academic evaluation during these assessments. 3. Suggest
other approaches on how students can be motivated to take examinations. Encourage students to set achievable
goals for themselves. Having clear objectives can provide motivation and a sense of purpose for the exam. And also
offer rewards or recognition for outstanding performance, such as certificates, small prizes, or acknowledgment in
front of peers. Assessment 4 1.Discuss the distinct features of a take home examination. Take-home exams are
often used to assess a student's mastery of a subject, as they require a deeper understanding and application of
knowledge rather than rote memorization. Take-home exams offer a unique assessment format that allows for
greater flexibility, complex questions, open-book resources, and a focus on critical thinking and research skills. They
aim to evaluate a student's deeper understanding of the subject matter and their ability to apply knowledge to
real-world scenarios. 2. Explain why the effect of practice in student's learning is more pronounced than those of
coaching. Practice involves students actively engaging with the material. When students repeatedly apply what
they've learned through exercises, problem solving, or hands-on activities, it reinforces their understanding. Active
learning is a well-established principle for effective knowledge retention. And also Practice encourages students to
become independent learners. They learn how to research, solve problems, and apply knowledge on their own.
Coaching, while valuable, can sometimes foster dependency on external guidance.
