Hare or turtle? Who hasn't ever wished all the exams to be cancelled as on a Harry Potter book? This is not a fantasy novel nor have we He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named stalking around, but a new law has granted our wish to get rid of those annoying tests each ending of course. Whether that's a change for the better is a controversial point even among students. We all wanted those stress-generators to be wiped out, but none of us thought of a backup plan. How would we were supposed to be evaluated, then? For the better or worse, the alternative has been stated as continuous assesment and poject work. What does it mean? You will no longer study breathlessly for your exams -what is the good part-, but you will have to study nearly-as-breathlessly-as-before during the whole course to pass it -what is the not-as-good-part. The difference is the same as between a sprint race and a step-by-step journey. In less words, you walk the same length and get to the same point, but the method, effort and time invested are totally set apart. You will agree when I say that exams were an anxiety focus where good students failed, therefore this new evaluation seems appealing for those nerve-wrecked ones. There's other type, anyway, who does not feel the same. 'Too much work those projects are', they may say, and it's that continuous assesment is a lazyness-proof method not everyone agrees with. Personally, day by day work ensures my aknowledge of what I study and makes me more confident about what I've learned. I undoubtedly prefer step-by-step journey, where besides enjoying the road, I will be able to continue walking after the finish line without ending up exhausted. So what do you prefer, to be a hare or a turtle student?
