An examination paper should assess a student’s understanding of
concepts rather than evaluating the skills of rote-learning. Badly set or
unbalanced question papers can put even the most carefully designed syllabi
to shame and can act as a dis-incentive for attending classes and may not
permit a great learning environment to develop.
GTU is initiating a new project – called ‘Confluence: The Art & Science of
Designing Question Papers’- with the objective of (i) designing guidelines
for setting good quality examination papers and (ii) for each subject,
preparing two sample question papers, which can be used to measure a
student’s competence in the whole of the syllabus of the subject well.
If you are interested in contributing to the massive but important
project and if you want to participate in the second phase workshop
