Hogwarts: I am the White Lord

Hearing Professor McGonagall's words of support, Sebastian felt as refreshed as if he had drunk an ice-cold Coke.

Hey!

With Professor McGonagall's support, the matter is basically settled.

As for Lao Deng, he didn't even know how to say a few words to support himself and just stood there like a log.

Not a qualified supporting actor at all.

Sebastian looked at Professor McGonagall and smiled.

“Secondly, I want to reform the exam.”

"We all know that for professors, exams are just a way to test students' knowledge."

“Through the exam, students can understand how much knowledge they have mastered in the past year and in which areas they are still lacking.”

"To put it bluntly, the exam is not the goal; the ultimate goal is to enable students to master knowledge."

"My idea is to divide each subject into required knowledge points and common knowledge points."

Hearing this, Dumbledore frowned and interrupted.

“Isn’t it a bit too utilitarian to categorize knowledge into different levels?”

"Are those common knowledge points not important?"

"You misunderstood, Headmaster." Sebastian looked at Dumbledore and explained with a smile.

"I think that every course has some knowledge that students must master."

"This can be seen from the examination papers every year. There are always some questions that are required to be tested every year."

"In that case, why don't we just let the professors pick out the most important points of this school year and make them mandatory for the exam?"

“Then add compulsory questions to the final exam.”

"We can generously announce to students which knowledge points will be required for examination during this year's study process."

"That way, as they learn, students will naturally strive to master that knowledge."

Listening to Sebastian's story, Professor McGonagall slowly understood the benefits of doing so.

To put it bluntly, the little wizards' review is generally concentrated in May of each year. They need to review a course from beginning to end within one month.

Through Sebastian's method, students can spread the pressure of review evenly throughout the school year.

For example, when learning the required points, the little wizards will naturally think about mastering these knowledge points immediately.

Before the exam, they can spend more time reviewing common knowledge points.

This is what Sebastian said, the ultimate goal is to enable students to master knowledge.

Of course, fifth-year and seventh-year students cannot enjoy this treatment. After all, both OWL and NEWT exams are handled by the Wizarding Examination Authority.

Professor McGonagall became excited and offered.

"If that's the case, we can be stricter."

"Required questions are not included in the total score, but if you get all the required questions wrong, you will fail the exam."

"After all, students have plenty of time to learn this knowledge. If they can't even master it, it only means that the student is too lazy."

"In addition, I think it would be best to set some of the compulsory exam questions as practical projects, because these skills are what students must master when they enter the society."

"For example, for Charms class, you can select specific spells that students must master."

"Potions classes can also follow this line of thought."

Sebastian smiled and nodded: "That's a great suggestion!"

"After all, if the required knowledge points are counted, young wizards can just learn these required knowledge points to pass the exam."

"According to your suggestion, students won't be able to take shortcuts."

“As for the specific details, we can let the professors brainstorm and discuss it.”

"I also found a problem about the exam."

problem?

Professor McGonagall looked at Sebastian in confusion.

"I found that except for a few hardworking students, most students are lazy."

Sebastian's voice sounded slowly.

"Generally speaking, most students will not take the initiative to review what they have learned before May."

"In fact, it's not that they don't work hard. Every May, these students work very hard. It's just that they are too lazy at other times."

"In this regard, I suggest learning from the Muggles and adding a midterm exam after Christmas to examine the students' knowledge mastery in the first half of the year."

"Through this exam, professors can also understand the specific circumstances of their students and adjust teaching content and methods accordingly."

"For the five basic subjects of Transfiguration, Charms, Potions, Herbology, and Defense Against the Dark Arts, professors can even increase the frequency of exams a little bit."

"For example, we can conduct a simple test every two months or even every month, just to let students know their weak points in learning."

"After all, these five subjects are so important that students can find good jobs as long as they learn them well."

"This way we are helping students by spreading their revision evenly throughout the year rather than concentrating it in May."

Professor McGonagall nodded in agreement. She couldn't agree more with what Sebastian said.

Students really need to devote more energy to the five basic subjects.

Most of the other elective courses are just to expand students' knowledge.

For their job search, these elective courses only serve as icing on the cake.

Especially in a divination class, not only did the young wizards learn nothing, but it was also of no use in finding a job.

"Headmaster, Professor McGonagall," Sebastian's voice turned serious.

"I have one more thing to add about the exam reform."

"I want to set the Disarming Spell, Stunning Spell, Petrifying Spell, and Shield Spell as the four spells that students must master to graduate."

"If possible, it would be best to add the Apparition charm as well."

"Students will only be allowed to graduate once they have mastered all of these spells."

"Oh?" Dumbledore's puzzled voice sounded, "Why do you do this?"

"You have to know that the Shield Charm is very difficult. Many adult wizards cannot master this spell."

“Is this requirement too harsh for students?”

"The reason is simple," Sebastian looked at the two professors firmly, "The mysterious man has appeared again."

Professor McGonagall's heart tightened when she heard the word "mysterious man".

She gave Dumbledore and Sebastian an angry look.

These two guys actually let several students face Professor Quirrell who was possessed by Voldemort.

This is really unreasonable!

I only found out about this after I returned from Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

She opened her mouth and was about to complain about Sebastian again when she heard Sebastian continue.

"Within ten years, or even five years, the mysterious man will surely make a comeback."

"When the time comes, a wizard war will surely break out again."

"We can't tell the students about this situation openly, so we can only push them silently."

"Let them learn how to attack, defend, and escape."

"Headmaster, Professor McGonagall, do you think this is a good enough reason?"
