The West African Examination Council (WAEC) has been urged to introduce group work in their marking scheme.
This
was coming from the guest lecturer, Mr Augustine Ngafuan who is the
Minister of Foreign Affairs, Republic of Liberia during WAEC’s 20th
Annual Endowment Fund Lecture held at Multipurpose Hall, WAEC
International Office in Ikeja, Lagos.
According to him, in the
job world, our performances or destiny is affected by the actions or
inactions of others since many tasks have to be executed in teams.
“In
order to encourage team works and skills in youth, WAEC working with
school administrators can derive a system whereby a student’s final
score in WAEC exam is the combination of his scores plus an extra point
that
takes into consideration group or team performance. Thus, the
student’s final score becomes an aggregate of the individual score in an
exam, plus the score of the team which the student was a member.”
Ngafuan emphasized.
