Many students in tertiary institution such as university do not know what conference marking is all about. Many students complained of failing a particular course when they know they did there best.
Conference marking in my own understanding is the coming together of different lecturers within a department or faculty an sometimes even outside departments and faculties in marking examination scripts rather than only the lecturer in charge of the course.
Students who are not aware of this type of marking finds it very difficult to pass the various courses due to there inability to give words to words. One thing that follows this type of marking is that, other lecturers who are not in charge of the course will follow only the marking scheme while making things difficult for students who do not follow the marking scheme.
On this note, it will encourage the students to indulge in examination malpractices, cheating and paying of lecturers to pass courses of which they did not merit.
Do you think this kind of marking should continue in our tertiary institutions such as universities. If yes drop your plight and if no drop your views.
Thanks
