AN ELECTRONIC bank of past O-NET (Ordinary National Educational Test) exam papers and answers in all subjects is to be created so students and teachers can access them for practice.

“This will be a true education reform measure that can boost students’ O-NET scores visibly in five years,” Education Minister Teerakiat Jareonsettasin said Saturday, adding that the idea would also be developed into a smartphone application in future.
He said the Office of Basic Education Commission (Obec) had been instructed to create the E-Testing Bank.
Teerakiat was speaking as he and Samphan Phanphruk, director of the National Institute of Educational Testing Service (NIETS), along with Obec executives inspected an O-NET exam site at Bangkok’s Rachawinij (Elementary) School.
