Madad Ali Sindhi, the acting federal minister for education and professional training, emphasised on Friday the necessity for a paradigm change in educational exams and evaluation systems in order to bring them into compliance with the demands of the contemporary technological era. Exams and assessment are essential components of the educational system, and we must implement policies that foster critical thinking, creativity, and the application of knowledge in real-world contexts. He made these remarks at the opening session of the two-day IBCC First Annual Conference, “Examination and Assessment Practices in Pakistan.” Academicians, teaching faculty, students, and vice-chancellors of universities from throughout the nation attended the conference, which was arranged by the Inter Board Coordination Commission (IBCC) here at a private institution.
