EXAMINATION MALPRACTICE: CAUSES, EFFECTS AND POSSIBLE WAYS OF CURBING THE MANACE. A CASE OF ADEYEMI FEDERAL UNIVERSITY OF EDUCATION, ONDO.
Abstract
Examination has been generally accepted as the best means of assessment all over the
world and it takes different forms and different names in different countries. Some foreign
countries refer to it as test, some refers to it as assessment while most African countries refers
to it as examination. It is a formal way of evaluating the quantity of knowledge a student has
acquired within a period of time. Teaching and learning become more effective when the
students are placed on examination to determine the level of their knowledge about what they
have been taught based on the curriculum and the lecturer or teacher can also assess
him/herself from the students’ performance. Examination is used to determine if the students
pass or fail, qualified or disqualified for the higher level of curriculum instruction, or can be
certified as a professional in a particular field of study
