Making the Grade

Do you think exams are a good way to test students’ knowledge? This is a good question, I agree with the exams, but not in the classic way. I watched a video about using internet to do exams in Copenhagen, it’s very interesting because schools prepare students for the real world, and nowadays we can understand the life without internet. It is an  excellent way to teach students to research and to analize the information. I remember how difficult was to learn by heart dates, names, facts, and formulas to take an exam, and now I forgot almost everything I learnt al school.
