Re: [AI] query: provision of having separate evaluation system/examiner for student with VI
Hello, While this may seem like a good option right now, it won't be really beneficial in the long run. I do agree that the scribe can make spelling mistakes, but the only way to combat that is to select a good writer who is proficient in English. Another way could be to give internal school/college exams with the same scribe who is slated to write the papers for the VI student in the university or board exams. This technique can enable the VI student to figure out the most glaring mistakes of the writer so that he/she can prevent those mistakes in the main exam. Many a time, if the examiner knows that a particular answer paper is of a VI candidate, his method of checking the paper changes drastically. Generally, for some reason, visually impaired students are believed to have below-average intelligence. So, the examiner might give average marks even if the paper is exceptionally well written. Similarly, he may give outstanding marks even to an average student merely on account of sympathy or his sheer amazement on seeing that visually impaired people are also capable of writing an exam reasonably well. I guess I'm just babbling, so I'll stop here. ;) On 28/05/2013, Vamshi. G gvamsh...@gmail.com wrote: I too feel there is no such need.
