Ministry revises the evaluation system for selected subjects during distance learning.
Dubai: The Ministry of Education has announced changes to the assessment method for certain subjects delivered through distance learning, confirming that the revisions will not impact students’ final results.
According to the ministry, the updated mechanism applies to subjects classified under the “B group” within the remote learning framework. The change is intended to ensure fair evaluation while maintaining academic standards during periods of distance learning.
The changes separate subjects into two categories. The first category includes subjects that will not be assessed in the third academic term due to the suspension of in-person teaching. Instead, final grades for these subjects will be determined based on students’ performance in the first and second terms.
The second category includes subjects that will continue to be assessed as usual. Students will be evaluated through ongoing activities, projects, and assignments conducted flexibly by teachers and recorded via approved learning management systems.
The ministry said the update aligns with efforts to support students and ensure continuity in education, without disadvantaging learners during periods of remote learning.
