Maybe the impression cones from a different understanding what "concept not explicitly covered in class" means.
Of course you would not test a completely unrelated concept but where I grew up "Transfer of Learning" is supposed to be part of every test, with a proportion that increases as students progress through school.
To test pupils ability of transfer of taught concepts means to let them apply information, strategies, and skills they have learned to a new situation or context.
- ruszki 5mo agoMy problem with my country of origin’s school system (Hungary) was that this “transfer of learning” was used solely during exams. It would have been really great, that after doing only simple, straightforward exercises during classes or home work, not the exam would have been the first time when students had encountered real world, way more complex exercises. (Btw the other really annoying exam type was when they tested your raw speed of recollection, in other words, whether you did that particular type of exercise a thousand times, and not that you understood or could you do it, like we would have practiced to ER or something where muscle memory can be life or death)
