First of all, no matter how the society evaluates exam-oriented education, as an individual, we should be grateful. Generally speaking, the model of exam-oriented education is what the school will hand in. For things other than the exam, you don't have to learn. Under this guidance, most students can only complete some established tasks, and often lack attention to things outside the tasks. To put it mildly, the students trained by exam-oriented education lack creativity and are too craftsman-like, but even so, for many people, exam-oriented education has given them the skills to make a living.
For college students under exam-oriented education, creativity is of course insufficient, but it is more than enough to perform their duties. They will even use their own learning methods summarized in school to think about the operation of the whole workplace, thus enhancing their personal competitiveness. For ordinary people, creativity is really not that important. Creativity will only generate value on the basis of solving your basic needs.
Secondly, exam-oriented education has been going on for many years and will continue. In fact, what students learn is similar to many positions in the workplace. What tasks did the superior arrange? As subordinates, they will finish the task in time. There is nothing wrong with this kind of education in essence. On the contrary, judging from the speed of economic development, it is the existence of these basic talents trained by exam-oriented education that supports the rapid economic development of China. If these people give up the foundation and pursue innovation,
Finally, no matter what exam-oriented education brings us, as long as you are still under this system, you should learn exam-oriented education and adapt to it. If you can't adapt to this kind of education, creativity and imagination will be a disaster for many people.
