ABOUT THE SITE
The Question Bank provides services that allow parents, schools, teachers, and students to enjoy suitable web database resources that ensure real life feed and interaction between the users and the website.
The website has vlogs, pictures, and text resources that allow candidates and students to have access to learning materials to help them adequately prepare for their final year examination.
The site also allows students to take a test within a time frame after which one receives his/her score immediately after answering the questions on the test and answers provided afterwards.
HOW TO GET IN
The website interface requires one to register in order to have access to the past questions for a fee of twenty Ghana cedis for individuals and a discount for groups and schools wishing to register on behalf of their students.
To navigate the question bank website, users are required to enter their individual details that capture their names, email address, school, and token in order to sign up.
The user’s dashboard is divided into three categories: take a test – this module helps users to take part in live exams, papers and evaluation; examiner’s paper review, which allows users to see all examiners’ papers review; and lastly, questions and possible answers, which allows users to see all questions and answers for past exams sessions.
APPEAL TO PATRONS
Addressing the media to launch the website, the Director of Question Bank Gh, Diana Oppong, urged teachers, students, schools, and parents to “make use of this essentially innovative system to help improve teaching and learning and keep candidates on track in their quest to pursue and achieve academic excellence.”
She continued that in the 21st century, virtually everything is done online with the help of technology. She further opined that contemporary practical knowledge requires that things are done in an effective and efficient manner.
According to her, the advancement of online applications has made life easier and more convenient.
She said, “In the past, reading and learning could only take place in the library and classroom and with the use of hard copy learning materials. Today, these things have migrated online, making learning even more fun for students and teachers. It is this same philosophy that underpins and births the questions bank website,” she remarked.
Some guests who are in the educational sector and attended the launch commended Questions Bank Gh for the innovation, and urged students to log on to www.questionsbankgh.com for their WAEC past questions.
