This parent's experience is typical. There are indeed some students who usually do well in the exam, but they do poorly in the final exam. Why is this happening? Nothing more than three reasons.
The first reason: test scores are usually wet.
Usually, exams are conducted during daily class hours, and are generally invigilated by a subject teacher, so that students' seats will not be disturbed. Many times the supervision is not strict. Some "flexible" students can always get answers easily; Some students who like to be "helpful" often send their answers to those in need.
Generally, there are at least two invigilators in the final exam, and invigilators are likely to come from different grades. In addition, students' seats are disrupted, the number of candidates in an examination room is strictly limited, and the cost and difficulty of students cheating are much higher. Some students who used to rely on others' "help" to get high marks, because they couldn't get others' "help", they could only cope with the exam with their own real skills, so they did a mess in the exam.
The second reason: poor summing-up ability.
Usually, the exam mainly examines students' mastery of a certain knowledge point or several knowledge points; The final exam focuses on students' summing-up ability. It is difficult for students with poor summing-up ability to integrate what they have learned into a system to get high marks in the final exam.
Take junior high school physics as an example. After learning the mechanics chapter, the content of the unit test at ordinary times is mechanical knowledge. After learning the optical chapter, the content of the unit test is optical knowledge; After learning electrical knowledge, the content of the unit exam is usually electrical knowledge ... because the content of the knowledge examined is relatively simple, some students can get good grades in the general exam as long as they recite relevant concepts and formulas. However, students who only learn by rote will not do well in the final exam, because the final exam regards the whole textbook as a whole, and the knowledge learned in front may be the foreshadowing of the later content. Therefore, if you want to get high marks in the final exam, you must know how to summarize and use it flexibly.
The third reason: physical, mental and other reasons affect the test results.
Some students have been doing well in school, and the high score in the exam is his real level. However, when the final exam approached, their physical problems affected their grades, which led to a big difference between their final exam results and their usual results.
Some students, because of their high expectations of themselves or their parents' high expectations of themselves, have excessive psychological pressure and unbalanced mentality, and are in a state of extreme anxiety before the final exam, which affects their test scores.
There are also some students who underestimate the difficulty of the final exam because of their overconfidence and high self-esteem, and have an arrogant mentality. As the saying goes, "pride goes before a fall", so the test scores have dropped seriously.
In fact, there are cases of "high exam scores and poor final exam results" and "low exam scores and good final exam results". However, in contrast, the first situation needs us to solve as soon as possible.
First of all, we must find the right reason.
Parents should fully participate in their children's study and life, and cannot turn a blind eye to this phenomenon. At the same time, parents should communicate with their children strategically. If you want to know the real reason, you must gain the trust of your child, let him treat you as a friend, and let him speak his inner thoughts.
If you can't get effective "information" from children, parents should observe more to see if children usually use "real kung fu" in their studies. For example, some children shut themselves in their rooms after school and tell their parents not to disturb them in the room. In fact, he (she) is hiding in the room reading novels. Parents can only find problems if they observe carefully.
Secondly, it is necessary to prescribe the right medicine.
Only by finding the right question can we prescribe the right medicine.
If a child's final exam is a mess because the exam is full of water at ordinary times, we should help the child make up the vacancy and guide the child to establish a correct view of examination and learning. This process will take some time. Parents should not be impatient or force their children to change slowly.
If it is because of poor induction and summary ability, it is necessary to work hard to cultivate thinking ability, help children establish a systematic knowledge system, and use popular mind maps to let children master knowledge faster and more systematically. In addition, parents should also fight a "cooperative war" with teachers and get experience and help from front-line teachers.
If it is because of physical or mental reasons, encourage children to exercise more, be careful not to put too much pressure on children and help them relieve stress.
Children will inevitably have some learning problems from primary school to middle school and then to college. What parents should do is to try their best to nip the problem in the bud and prevent it from getting worse.
However, learning requires not only the patience and perseverance of children, but also the patience and perseverance of parents. If children can keep up their hard-working study and parents can keep an eye on their children's dynamics, many problems will not be so difficult to solve.
