Why Give Exams, Tests and Quizzes
2021-03-13

Why do we have so many quizzes?
Tests, exams and quizzes require students to recall information. Most teachers test just to assess what students know. I have always believed that tests, exams and quizzes are used for learning in addition to assessing students' knowledge.
In training schools, exams, tests and quizzes serve two purposes.
(1) Let us know what your child doesn't know, rather than discovering what the student knows. If we can find out what your child doesn't know, then we can help them learn what they don't know.
The actual biological process of learning anything involves what is called "synaptic bonding." This is easy to understand when you realize that connections and unions are being made in the brain needed to build memories. The brain's synapses connect with other people and create networks (just like computers do, except in our brains it does so naturally. ) Think about the physical location of all your native language knowledge in your brain. There is a network of synapses connected to other synapses. When we need to recall a memory (for example in a quiz, exam, or test), our conscious mind is asking for our memory (subconsciously). The effort expended to retrieve information (e.g. finding answers on tests) will make powerful connections. We are exercising the muscles of our synapses when we need to retrieve information. After this process is completed, it will be enhanced.
What happens if we try to retrieve information and can't find what we need? How does this promote learning?
When we fail to find the answer, our subconscious mind will focus on the task of finding the answer until we find it. When our students miss a particular question or give the wrong answer on an exam, a question is posed to the subconscious mind that will not be satisfied until the correct answer is found.
That's how we use tests, exams and quizzes in the classroom. The grades they get in our class are no more important than the grades that they get at regular schools. That's why and why we use a lot of quizzes in class. Your child will learn what we want them to know faster and more effectively.


为什么我们这么多测验

测试,考试和测验要求学生回忆信息。大多数老师考试只是为了评估学生所知道的。我一直认为,除了评估学生的知识外,测试,考试和测验还用于学习。

在培训学校中,考试,测试和测验有两个目的。

(1)让我们知道您的孩子不知道的东西,而不是发现学生知道的东西。如果我们可以发现您的孩子不知道的内容,那么我们可以帮助他们学习他们不知道的内容。

(2)学习任何事物的实际生物学过程都涉及所谓的“突触结合”。当您意识到建立记忆所需的大脑中正在建立联系和结合时,这些内容很容易理解。大脑的突触与其他人连接并创建网络(就像计算机一样,除了在我们的大脑中,它很自然地这样做。)想一想您大脑中所有母语知识所在的物理位置。有一个网络是由与其他突触连接的突触构建的。当我们需要回忆记忆(例如在测验,考试或测验中)时,我们的意识在要求我们的记忆(在潜意识中)。检索信息所花费的精力(例如在测试中寻找答案)将建立强大的联系。当我们需要检索信息时,我们正在锻炼突触的肌肉。完成该过程后,将对其进行增强。

如果我们尝试检索信息却找不到所需的信息,会发生什么?这如何促进学习?

当我们找不到答案时,我们的潜意识将专注于寻找答案直到找到答案的任务。当我们的学生在考试中错过某个特定问题或给出错误答案时,就会向潜意识提出一个问题,直到找到正确答案后,该问题才会满足。

这就是我们在教室中使用测试,考试和测验的方式。他们在我们班上获得的分数并不比他们在正规学校所获得的分数重要。这就是为什么以及为什么我们在课堂上使用很多测验。您的孩子将学习我们希望他们更快,更有效地了解的知识。
