Multiple choice
Ministry implements open-ended questions in nationwide exams
The Education Ministry has announced plans to introduce open-ended questions in nationwide joint exams, marking a departure from the traditional multiple-choice format.
The move aims to offer more comprehensive insights into student learning and ensure consistency across schools, according to Kemal Bülbül, the ministry's director overseeing exams.
First joint exams held for 6th, 9th graders across Türkiye
The second written exam of the first semester in the 2023-2024 academic year will take place as a joint exam in mathematics and Turkish language and literature for sixth and ninth graders across Türkiye on Dec. 26-27 for the first time.
Depending on the outcome and success of the pilot test, the National Education Ministry will apply the practice to other subjects.
