Good or Bad A Moratorium of National  Examination In Riau?

         National examination is one way to determinants of student for graduate from their school. Usually this program is applied to Elementary School, Junior High School and Senior High School. But in this year, the goverment plan a viral issue in Indonesia that they would “Moratorium of National Eaxamination”. Moratorium of National Examination means that National Examination will be stopped for a while because for all the time, this program is not considered optimal in promoting the quality of national education.

          In Riau, Some people and a lead of education authorities believe that National examination  make such disadvantages to the students when they passed it. First, National examination more burden the students when they absorb the lesson in the school. National examination on psychologically considered  make a stressful for the students. They are stress because their graduation will be determined by this program on three or four days.  If they are failed, they will study and join the examination on the next year. Next, in practice, national examination filled unfair by students, teachers, principals to the bureaucratic elite of education. Cost of this  program is billion hundred rupiah, and its considered wasteful and poorly targeted. The last, with national examination, gives justification that education in rural areas lagging quality than urbans areas.

          In the other hand, national examination should give some good advantages  for students in the school. National examination will encourage a seriousness of learning for the students. Students will be compelled spirit of studying to get high score (point) in national examination. Then, national examination is an ideal parameter for measuring the achivement of quantitive standard of understanding in the school that apply nationally. If moratorium of national  examination is enforced, there is no standard test that could be the benchmark and can lead the laziness on the students

          However, the moratorium of national examination is one plan from government to make a new good evaluation in this country exactly in Riau for next generation. Each of school  can make a formula to final examination for their students based on integrated learning. Then, government need to increase the capacity of teachers with a good qualification for better quality on our education system.  As a teacher in riau, they shoul make a motivation for their students to keep spirit in learning and understanding altought without the national examination.
