Just a Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor

"As the name suggests, the so-called exam-oriented education is all the study and efforts we have made this year to prepare for the O.W.L.s exam at the end of the semester."

"Of course, it is undeniable that everyone's family environment is different. For some people, this exam will determine whether he has a foothold in the future magic world, but for others, what is on the OWLs certificate? They don't need to care about a few O's and E's."

"So before the test-oriented education plan is launched, those of you who don't care about your O.W.L.s scores can apply to me. After that, you have the right not to participate in all the teaching of test-oriented content."

"But as long as you are sure to participate, you are not allowed to drop out before the end of the OWLs exam. So if there are people who have not made up their minds, I suggest not to participate in the mentality of giving it a try. At that time, it will be even if you take Professor Dumbledore Please come here, and the schoolwork that should be completed cannot be missed either."

Sherlock's warning before the class was very clear, which made all the students below nervous.

Their first four years at Hogwarts were not too hard.

In this castle, there are only seven professors who have worked hard in the main courses, and the students' hard work is completely unqualified to compare with them.

So the relaxed study atmosphere also made them subconsciously ignore the next O.W.L.s exam.

The new students in the fifth grade subconsciously thought that this exam was not much different from the normal final exam.

It was only until the end of the semester that some of them could realize the importance of the O.W.L.s.

The O.W.L.s (General) and N.E.W.T. (Ultimate) exams, both of which are equivalent to the diploma of a wizarding graduate.

Because the number of wizards themselves is not large, all employment pressures are not too great, and there is basically no meaningless involution.

The diploma examination does not implement a system of elimination, but a system of grading.

Taking the O.W.L.s exam as an example, as long as students take the exam, certificates will be issued for the twelve subjects of the exam.

It's just that there are good and bad grades on the certificate.

In the magic world, even if the pressure of employment is not high, the occupations with good pay and high social status are not suitable for any wizard.

For example, the civil servants of the Ministry of Magic and the specially hired curse breakers of Gringotts all have high requirements for the results of O.W.L.s and N.E.W.T. (For example, Bill, the eldest of the Weasleys, got 12 Os in the O.W.L.s exam, and joined the spell-breaker in Gringotts, Egypt)

Under normal circumstances, due to the relaxed learning atmosphere advocated in the history of the West, coupled with the lack of competition pressure, even after graduation with poor grades, you can live in the magic world.

If there are no other forms of education to intervene, students will not be under too much pressure in school. After all, everyone relaxes together, and the exam depends on their talents and who is interested in magic learning.

But in fact, this is not the case.

According to the recent days of Sherlock's arrival at Hogwarts, a survey of general wizarding rank examinations in recent years found.

Most of the people who can get good grades in O.W.L.s are students whose parents are wizards. In the magic world, they are children of pure-blood families.

They have an innate magical education environment, and they have been rooted in the magical world for a long time. Parents who know the rules of wizarding society will also put pressure on these people to require them to perform well in the O.W.L.s exam.

So pure-blood families themselves are better than children from Muggle families in family education, resulting in much better diplomas than them in exams.

After entering the magical society, they occupy upper-level positions based on this, and then provide better and better education to their next generation, thus forming a cycle.

And these students from Muggle families with ordinary parents must have clear cognition, as well as self-discipline and self-learning ability.

Or they have a great interest in magic learning, and it is possible to surpass those pure-blooded family students who started out better than them. (Hermione, for example, but even Hermione got only 9 O's in the OWLs she gave up on two OWLs where she only took 10, compared to the 12 O's of Weasley's Bill Percy. There are some gaps.)

This is also a common phenomenon in the Western education world. Even in the magic world, even if there is only Hogwarts in the whole of the UK, it still has not changed much. (Or rather, Rowling's ideas about education were influenced by this when she was writing.)

Before Sherlock came to Hogwarts, he discovered this phenomenon from the relevant books and materials in the original master study.

Therefore, the teaching plan for the senior grades was planned from the beginning.

The exam-oriented education only needs to arrange the class content around the exam, which temporarily covers up his understanding of advanced spells.

At the same time, it can make the competition of the senior students in the grade test a little fairer, at least in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class.

This is also a little obsession of Sherlock, who was admitted to an institution of higher learning through exam-oriented education in his previous life.

In terms of education, he always hoped that it should be fairer~www.NovelMTL.com~ Sherlock left enough time for the students below to choose, but no one raised his hand and said he didn't care about the O.W.L.s exam.

The more wizarding students are, the more they know the importance of grading, and those Muggle-born children will be 16 at the beginning of this term.

They have already realized that they will graduate from Hogwarts in just two years, and it is also time to plan ahead for the future.

After confirming that no one objected, Sherlock nodded slightly, and then handed down the parchment he had placed on the podium at the beginning.

"Then from this class, our test-oriented education plan will officially start."

"First of all, we have to conduct a classroom test, let me know what level you are in the theoretical method of knowledge related to black magic creatures."

The first class of the school is to take an exam, which is something that the fifth-grade students have never experienced.

And their next life in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class will definitely not be as easy as it used to be.

By studying the question-making habits of the Ministry of Magic for the O.W.L.s exam in previous years, Sherlock has been planning and sorting out a set of test-taking materials, and began to write test papers similar to "Five-year College Entrance Examination and Three-Year Simulation", implementing the sea of ​​questions tactics.

In short, in the first week of coming to Hogwarts, Sherlock decided on different teaching methods for the lower grades and the upper grades.

Now that he is a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, Sherlock also tries his best to teach the students in this castle the most effective way while ensuring his own safety.

At least it can be worthy of these students. Isn't that the title of "Professor Forrest"?
