How exam fail us



Difficulty of a questioner:-

You question someone based on your assessment of how much they know.. if you are not even slightly aware of how much knowledge they possess or what's their level of academic achievements you wouldn't be able to ask them the right questions. And now you can ask what you mean by right questions? I mean the right questions are the ones that gives a clear account of a person's intellectual capabilities in that given subject. The best questioner are the ones who have a grasp of the answerer's mind.

Difficulty of Answerer:-

The difficulty of the answerer is that he has to be aware of the reassessing and comprehensive abilities of the questioner to answer him correctly and in a manner which suits both of their interest. He have to have an idea of how his response will be taken by the questioner. Will he see the point he is trying to make? Because two people looking at the same thing not often see the same thing for example let's just say an excellent Tennis player is giving an exam about sports and one of the question is "What is a Tennis ball? And what is it used for?" A simple enough question. But here is a knowledge gap between the questioner and the answerer about this particular subject and it could end in two ways either the Tennis player chooses to be ordinary in his approach of answering and goes with the general definition to which, no one would have any trouble understanding. 

Or he can pour out his heart's content about the matter sharing the various information & nuances about different types of Tennis balls and how to use them what works, what doesn't you know he can get into details because the subject is dear to him. And now the questioner can look at it in two ways first it's correct, it's good, it's very good or It's not in the book, it's out of context and most importantly it's not what is feed into the computer then I'm afraid to say the vast amount of knowledge in the subject would not be appreciated in the way it should be I guess by now you would've gotten what I mean.

'What in the world..?' 'That's right, what in the world..?' 'We should hurry and grab some water buckets we can still stop the fire.' Mary spoke hurriedly. 'It's too late.' Jenna spoke in a final tone. 'But..' 'It's too late Mary, there is nothing left to save here, all the grains for this year is already burnt.' Natalia explained. 'That means we will go hungry..' Mary thought 'We will die.. Nat!' Mary exclaimed.  It was not that far from the truth, it was actually a very real possibility. Amarat was a country which doesn't had very much fertile lands. Most of the landmass included rocky mountains, steep cliffs, thousand years old rock and granite caves, the country had many mountains and suffered from frequent volcanic eruptions over a long period of time the forests and farming lands developed but still they were about 17% of the whole surface area that's the reason why food cultivation an...

Strangers on the internet are still strangers

Strangers on the internet are still strangers That line right there, I want to drill that line in the minds of every teenager using the internet. Because the balatant ignorance of that little fact, is not healthy. I know that back in the days, one important reason for  the internet to exist, was that it can connect people from all over the world, and it still is..  But we can't ignore the increased rate of cyber bullying & cyber crimes in the past decade. Connecting with strangers comes with it's own set of benefits and downfalls. Benefits such as broadening of the horizon, new perspective, exposure to different things, culture, people and perspectives which is all very nice but the downfalls can be so very drastic.. And if you are like me who doesn't like anything drastic, you take caution; for safety reasons ofcourse.. So first thing first never take anything on the internet literally, like NEVER EVER. Because no matter how much relatable content you have ...

I was sitting at a bus stop earphone plugged in, and lost in another world of melodious ecstasy, but the city around me wasn't lost they were pretty much woke, as  people roam around without a care in the world. The theme of the night was definitely free spirited, before something else took over whispers, shouts, camera shuttering and alot of yelling and cursing. "They took every term necessary." "She deserved it!" "Did you saw her face! must be hard walking out of the studio she ruled for more than a decade." "She had completely lost it!" "The money had gotten to her head." "She was so rude and undeserving." "I'm actually so happy it was a long time coming." "She was no struggler she was a rich brat gone lucky."  "Honestly I can't stand her. This is not enough, they are only cancelling her show! I want her banned!!" "I know right.." "So as you can see people...
