The celebration of Ramadan, the situation in universities, the reduction of foreign investment, and the results of graduation and entrance exams are the topics of today's media.
The newspaper Azerbaijan writes about the end of Ramadan, telling about the essence of this holiday, celebrated at a high level. It became possible due to restoring the independence of the country.
At present, there are over 2,000 mosques in Azerbaijan, whereas in Soviet times there were only 17.
The website Yeni Sabah.az writes that entrance examinations should be eliminated in Azerbaijan. The website discusses the situation in the higher education system with the deputy Asim Mollazadeh. He believes that the university system itself must be reformed, especially in the matter of entrance examinations.
According to the results of the final examinations at the school, universities themselves will be able to select students for themselves. The traditions of the Soviet era must end, the deputy said. Special attention should be paid to talented applicants from low-income families.
The website Azadliq.info writes that the volume of foreign investments has decreased by 39%. Expert Neymat Aliyev does not agree with the head of state about the favorable business environment in Azerbaijan.
In January-April, the volume of foreign investment decreased by 1.163 billion manat.
The newspaper Yeni Musavat discusses the situation with the graduation and entrance examinations, at which no one scored high. Last year, there were 28 people who scored 700 points, and this year there were not any, the author writes.
In general, the level of education does not meet international standards. Of the 130 thousand students who have passed the final exams, only 4 people showed the maximum results. Experts list the reasons for this: a new test model of graduation and entrance examinations, the presence of the human factor during the verification process, and the lack of understanding by many secondary school teachers of the curriculum system that is used in schools. -0-
