Descriptive-type questions See-off introduction Students Parents Experts ... December 17, 16:28

About the descriptive problem in the university entrance examination, Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology said, “At present, it is difficult to get rid of the anxiety of examinees and quickly prepare a system that allows them to take the exams with peace of mind.” Announced that the introduction from January of next year will be forgotten.

High school student "voice of relief and anger"

St. Kogakuin High School in Yokohama has been preparing for descriptive questions, such as participating in a national test trial.

However, the introduction was postponed, and teachers and students also heard resentment as well as reassurance.

“I was worried about what the new exam would be like, so I was relieved that the confusion was going down. The response of the country so far was indecisive, and there was a little period of time I did n’t know where to fall. I think it was too long, and I want to tell the people in the country that we don't want to take our exams sweetly. "

In addition, another boy student said, “I quit English, and I stopped writing, so I thought it would have been good for the original center exam. In the written question, I heard in the news that I would hire a student part-time job for scoring work. I was worried that I would like the country to hear more from the students and teachers. "

.

“In fact, when we scored the problem of writing the trial survey, I felt that there was a wide range of fairness. The students were swayed by information about the entrance examination. I have told you to study calmly, but I think that the announcement at this time is too slow and pitiful.I want the country to revisit the purpose of the entire entrance examination reform once again. " Was

Parents "parents are also affected"

We talked to parents in Tokyo about the introduction of the descriptive problem. A father who has a third-year high school child who completed the recommended entrance examination said, “I think it would be good to understand the expression of the person's thoughts, but certain rules and fairness are necessary. I think it will be difficult to change suddenly because the parents who are working together will also be affected. "

In addition, a mother who has a second-year high school child who is preparing to take the exam next year, says, “I leave the exam to the child, but the system cannot be changed with the times. However, I study in anticipation that the system will change. I think I am doing it, so if you want to change it, I want you to change it firmly. "

The voice of the net

There are various voices on the Internet, such as peace of mind and confusion.

Regarding the description type problem, there are some opinions that welcome the postponement because there have been concerns about scoring errors.

“One point depends on my life”

“Did the postponement of the common test be postponed! I ’m relieved. It ’s no surprise that there ’s a scoring error or a blur. One point is the life of the student.”

“Thanks to the teachers, it was really hard to find a junior who was allowed to take an unprecedented test.”

“I should have quit from the beginning, but it ’s the students and high school and prep teachers who are danced”

"Return time and money"

On the other hand, the voices of madness and anger are rising from those who seem to be high school students who have already made preparations.

“As a high school student, I am glad that this was clear. However, I feel sorry for the teacher who was preparing a class for common test measures so far.”

"I'm glad I lost the description, but I wasn't good at it, so I got a lot of trials for common test measures, bought a reference book, studied, and tried to take measures early, but I returned time and money I ’m really irresponsible. ”

“A decision that was too short. I am worried about wrinkles to the students.

Some of these posts from people who are related to prep schools and private schools.

“In the two years after the announcement of the trial of the common test, we created teaching materials and questions by returning to Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays. I want to throw it. "

“I'm glad that there is no common test description formula, but the decision is too late. The second high school student has made a lot of time studying and scoring points in the description formula. "

“Is it good for the center exam?”

In addition, there is an opinion that it may be good for the conventional center test.

"Please tell me the difference from the center exam, isn't there any difference?"

“University tests, description formulas and English private exams will be postponed, so it ’s not the same as center exams.

“The English private exam has disappeared, and the language and mathematics are no longer written, so the contents are just a center exam.

Persons involved in the examination “There are still many issues”

Yutaro Sato, General Manager of the Yoyogi Seminar Education Division, said, “I was surprised, but I thought it was a lot of problems. I think it's a very good way to try out what you have learned in 2010. However, since students take a self-scoring and decide where to apply, the big question is whether they can score properly. In addition, I think there is no choice but to say that the score depends on the ability, knowledge, and experience of the grader. It is necessary to make it happen. "

Expert "System was too complicated"

Ryoji Matsuoka, Associate Professor at Waseda University, who specializes in educational sociology, points out, “I think the postponement itself was good, but the question of why this reform has not been resolved has to be verified.”

As for the problem of the descriptive formula, `` Students who are economically blessed by judgment at the time of self-scoring, if self-scoring is difficult, are bullish on private or Ronin choices, while those who are underprivileged quit or volunteer It may have caused “invisible victims”, such as dropping the rank of the university, etc. Also, the entrance examination reform that has been promoted this time was clearly too complex for the examination of the conventional center examination. “There is a risk that it will create a business of countermeasures and widen the gap. The government should have incorporated such concerns when considering policies,” he said.

As for the future, he said, “We must stop making ongoing reforms, increase the transparency of the discussion and policy-making process, and obtain and verify the proper data on the effects of the introduction.”
