Based on reports from Daily Trust, the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) plans to start the electronic method of conducting examinations during the Senior School Certificate Examination (SSCE), Chairman of the council, Professor Jonas Redwood-Sawyer said yesterday.
Redwood-Sawyer said this when he led a team to the Minister of Education, Professor Ruqayyatu Ahmed Rufa’i as part of preparations to kick off the 60th anniversary celebration of the council. He said Nigeria has to some extent curtailed the incidents of examination malpractice.
He said all member countries are addressing the problem of technology fraud with strict monitoring during examinations.
The minister said the Federal Ministry of Education was working closely with various states through the commissioners of education to reduce examinations malpractice.
Online exams for who? students who are not computer literates? or student's who dont have access to basic IT infrasructures? Or are they planning this for just private secondary schools?
