Bagrut exams

For the past few years the issue of Matriculation exams are(ww. - as) the most reliable way of testing a student's knowledge, has been debated in many levels, such as teachers and students. Recently, there have been opinions claiming that this way of testing is worthless. I personally believe that the Bagrut exams are not the most effective way of testing students.

First of all, there is the most known argument, which simply claims that the Bagrut exams "stresses out" the student. This leads them to mistake(phr.) during the test. There is no proven claim that the Matriculation exams make students to get into panics(phr.), although, most of the pupils that have just finished the exam claims(gr.) the test was very stressful among others of(phr.) the material they have to study and the time they (have) to accomplish that.

Second of all, most of the teachers tend to say that the Bagrut exams are the most reliable way of testing a student's knowledge. This, in my opinion, is wrong, since the student is demanded(ww. - required) to remember 200 pages for 3 hours of testing, (which) is really ridiculous. A research that was published in Ynet showed that after a period of time after the test, in other words(מיותר) one and a half week(s) after the test, most of the students do not remember most of the material they learned.

To conclude, I suggest the education system to find a different way to examine the students' knowledge. A kind of test that will test the students not only theoretically, but practicaly as well. This will help the students to remember the material for a long period of time.

Better.

Sport Or Not?

Two days ago, while I was reading this magazine, I read an article and as a part of the article the writer asked the readers to express their opinion on the issue which some people prefer team sports while other prefer individual sports.(phr.) I personally think that team sport is preferable in this case.

On the one hand, it is important to mention that team sports develop different kinds of abilities, such as team work, since the players have to work in cooperation, (pay) attention to the whole team because during a game, some players use to mistake(phr.). For example, in a football match, the striker tends to loose the ball as a result of stress. So, as a player in his team, my duty is to keep the ball away from the opponent.

On the other hand, individual sports develop a lot of skills, which team sport does not. for example, the issue of self discipline does not appear in team sports such as football and basketball. In addition, there is the fact that in the individual sports, each game is important for the players' respect(ww.) - The more you win , you are a better player(phr.).
.
To conclude, you can see that it is not about a better kind of sport, it is all dependent(phr.) on what kind of player you are. For example, you can be the greatest soccer player in the history of sport. But as long as you can not work in a team, you are worthless compared to a middeled(ww.) player who works (well) in a team work.
