Differences Between Exam-oriented Education and Quality-oriented Education
Nowadays people are becoming increasingly aware of the importance of quality-oriented education. As far as I’m concerned, the principal difference between exam-oriented education and quality-oriented education is their purpose. They aim at improve students’ skills whether particular for exams or ready for all kinds of challenges in the future. My idea stems generally from two aspects as follows.First, we students are under the pressure of many examinations, such as college entrance examination. This is a fact and everyone should admit it. To improve students’ score, teachers and parents concentrate on developing their skills for exams. In this case, students may gain high marks and get further study. However, will they manage to overcome challenges and difficulties in the future? No one knows the answer.Second, quality-oriented education mainly aims at improving students’ skills not only for study but also for many other activities. In that case, students may have their own hobbies and abilities so that they can use their intelligence and labor to deal with all kinds of difficulties and challenges.In conclusion, quality-oriented education may make our students excellent people, both good at study and coping other kinds of things. Let’s attach much importance to it!

The Exam-oriented Education or the Quality-oriented Education

In China, debate over two educational patterns- the exam-oriented and the quality-oriented-has lasted for several decades.
Generally speaking, exam-oriented education gives priority to the scores of students. The performance of students in all kinds of examinations is the criterion of judging the success of education. Under this pattern, cramming method of teaching finds its prevalence all over the schools. In contrast to this, the quality-oriented education emphasizes all-round development. Students are supposed to learn actively and creatively rather than receive knowledge passively and therefore inactively.
From my point of view, the quality-orientation is much superior to the exam-orientation. Under the quality-oriented education, students are motivated and are eager to learn through their own experience. However, under the exam-oriented pattern, students bear too heavy pressure and their creativities and initiative are wasted. Students educated by this pattern can not match the pace of modern society and the pattern is already out of tune with the modern melody.
