Question

[5]. Passage: Examinations often teach students to fear mistakes, yet in most real learning a mistake is the first clear evidence of a gap. A student who writes a wrong answer and then traces why it went wrong learns more than a student who copies a correct answer without understanding it. Schools therefore need two different moments: a moment for practice where errors are examined openly, and a moment for assessment where performance is judged. When every practice task is also graded harshly, students hide errors, and teachers lose the very information that could help them teach. The passage implies good teaching needs:

1.
Punishment for every error
2.
Open examination of errors during practice
3.
No assessment at all
4.
Only final examinations
