RE: A teacher is just a teacher, a teacher is not God!

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

I ask her 'But shouldn't there be a re-correction?'
The assistant doesn't know and I don't notice from her attitude that she will check to what extent that is possible.

This could easily be helped if there's an independent Exam committee, who sees to everything that has to do with tests and exams and also writes the policies regarding those. Especially if it's a test from a while ago. I was always looking for a way to score a higher mark if I knew I deserved it 😅 and I'm blessed I haven't had teachers who were bullies.

Yes there is an independent Exam committee. The problem regarding this subject is, there is only 1 teacher who knows that subject. So the Exam committee can make the rules etc, but they cannot check if the exercises are correct or not. This is a problem in almost all fields of study at the University of Suriname.

I have had teachers who were bullies, but then again I am someone who always dares to ask questions. So I have never been disadvantaged.

That's a shame, but I recognize this with students from other faculties.
I do hope that there'll be more educators. It's not only good for the students, but it's also a safe guard for teachers, if they aren't the only ones working on a test: "4-ogen principe".

Yes, that's true. They keep saying that they have only 1 teacher because it's a small country. I don't really know though if this is also a problem in other small countries. Maybe it's time for me to do some research about it. 😅

That would be an interesting topic, because it's not only the university that's having this problem. A lot of higher education institutions, who are having these problems.
