Certification based on textbooks or subjects? What are teachers demanding?

Certification based on textbooks or subjects? What are teachers demanding?

The other day, complaints from teachers about certification
tests were circulating on social media. According to them, the tests are
unnecessarily complicated, and there are too many assignments.

Co-founder of Ayb Educational Foundation Aram Pakhchanyan
suggests looking at the issue from two perspectives, trying to grasp
perceptions and the reality. 

According to experts, the matter of complaint is not the
tests, but the teachers who want to take certification tests. The thing is, the
grounds for complaint is not the complexity itself, but the very fact that the
questions are not from the textbooks. Thus, it so happens that they are not
teachers of the subject, but those of the textbooks. 

“We are in no position to adopt a bad educational system.
This is a path leading to a bad end, and we have been successfully following
this path for 30 years,” Aram Pakhchanyan says.
