The intern taught a top-performing class, and the parents wanted to change the homeroom teacher.

In the afternoon, in the main conference room.

All the teachers of the second year of high school are here.

The familiar thermos was still next to Pan Hai as he gave his final five-minute speech.

"The midterm exams are approaching. Heads of each teaching group should go back and form question-setting teams. You can start setting the questions now."

"..."

Five minutes later, another five minutes passed, and the speech ended.

Director Pan kept the group leaders behind, while the other teachers ended the meeting.

Only Shao Mingrui, Zheng Benqing, and a few other course group leaders remained in the meeting room.

"Director Pan, how should we determine the difficulty level of the midterm exam?" Shao Mingrui asked.

Director Pan tapped his notebook with a ballpoint pen.

"The minimum requirement is a good look, and the top requirement is a significant difference."

"Half a semester has passed, and we need to consolidate the knowledge points for the exam. We can't just rely on doing a lot of practice questions like we do for monthly exams; we need to improve our thinking process."

"This isn't the first time you've set questions, so you can be careful not to overstep the mark."

The group leaders took notes in their notebooks, noting that the monthly exam and the midterm exam were not at all the same level of difficulty.

Many questions in the monthly exams are just variations of what's in the textbook; as long as you do a lot of practice questions, it's not difficult to get a high score.

Midterms are different; half a semester has passed, and it's time for a major exam to test your knowledge.

Especially in subjects like math and physics, different knowledge points are often grouped together in the questions. Simply doing practice questions without mastering the essence will make it difficult to get a high score.

This explains why some students work out a lot of practice problems, yet their scores only stay around 120 points, with minimal effect.

Just as he was writing, Shao Mingrui suddenly raised his hand.

"Director, can we add one more person to the math question-setting team?"

"Who?"

"Teacher Lu Qian."

Pan Hai paused in his tapping of the pen, his brows furrowing slightly.

The question-setting team for each subject usually consists of 3-4 people, and at most no more than 5 people.

One or two people are responsible for setting the questions, usually the head of the lesson preparation group and key teachers.

One or two people are responsible for reviewing the exam questions, usually experienced senior teachers, who are responsible for assessing and reviewing the difficulty level of the exam papers.

Other teachers will only conduct a short, 20-minute trial run the day before printing to ensure there are no disputes regarding the questions and answers.

In some major exams, teachers even see the final exam paper in the exam room just like the students.

Lu Qian had only been at the school for a short time, less than three months, so he shouldn't have been involved in setting the exam questions.

However, Shao Mingrui often said that Lu Qian's questions were ingenious and his thinking was unique, and that he had to admit defeat to him.

Pan Hai wasn't the kind of director who held onto old ideas; otherwise, he wouldn't have gone against the majority opinion to make Lu Qian the homeroom teacher.

Since young people have the ability, let them give it a try.

How can you grow if you don't try? Anyway, there's more than one person setting the questions, and there are also examiners behind them.

"Send a message to Teacher Lu and ask him to come back," Pan Hai said.

Shao Mingrui was overjoyed; the plan had succeeded!

Others may not know, but he often discusses difficult problems with Lu Qian, and they know it all too well!

He's an absolute master at setting exam questions!

He was extremely envious of that ability to integrate multiple knowledge points!

In the past, he would either set the questions himself or with another teacher; in short, he could never escape them.

Every time I finish setting a test question, I lose a handful of hair.

With Lu Qian around, I won't have to work so hard.

Ah, the good days are finally coming.

Comfortable~

Shao Mingrui quickly sent a message to Lu Qian.

……

At that moment, Lu Qian was walking towards the classroom while chatting with his Chinese teacher, Guo Mei.

Lu Qian was somewhat surprised when his phone vibrated and he saw the message.

"What's wrong?"

"Teacher Shao asked me to go back."

"Okay, I'll go and watch over your class for you."

Although Guo Mei said that, she knew that Class 25 had undergone tremendous changes.

The teachers no longer need to worry about discipline.

Lu Qian said, "Thank you for your help, Teacher Guo," and then turned and walked towards the conference room.

Zhang Chao was chatting with the other teachers as he returned to his class. He saw Lu Qian brush past him as he went back to the meeting room, and he was a little puzzled, but he didn't think much of it.

Midterm exams are coming up soon, I need to go back and have the students study hard. I should give them more practice tests lately.

Lu Qian strode to the conference room and pushed open the door to enter.

"Director, you wanted to see me."

Pan Hai nodded and pointed to the table in front of him. "Sit down."

Shao Mingrui beckoned to Lu Qian with a big smile, gesturing for Lu Qian to sit next to him.

Lu Qian felt a pang of doubt.

What's going on?

Pan Hai looked at Lu Qian and said, "Teacher Lu, it's like this, we just discussed the midterm exam question setting in the meeting, and Teacher Shao suggested that you join the math question-setting team. What are your thoughts?"

Lu Qian was stunned and subconsciously looked at Shao Mingrui.

Shao Mingrui winked at him, exchanging glances: We can play together happily again, aren't you surprised?

Lu Qian raised an eyebrow: Teacher Shao, you're quite the player!

Zheng Benqing, the physics group leader behind them, frowned slightly. What were they talking about?

Lu Qian hesitated for a moment before saying, "Thank you for your trust, Director Pan and Teacher Shao, but I won't be participating in setting the questions this time."

Shao Mingrui suddenly froze.

This is not what he expected!

Pan Hai frowned slightly. "Why? Are you afraid you're not qualified enough?"

Before Lu Qian could speak, he continued, "I only look at ability, not seniority. Anyone with a problem can come to me. If there's a problem with the principal, I'll speak to him personally."

The principal, who was in a meeting elsewhere, suddenly sneezed for no apparent reason.

Pan Hai still gave Lu Qian plenty of confidence.

In his view, the reason why young people dare not try is because they are afraid that no one will support them, but he can.

Back then, someone had a safety net for him, which is why he was able to get to where he is today. However, his strength was still insufficient, so he could only stop here.

Lu Qian felt a warmth in his heart and said softly, "It's not that I'm afraid I don't have enough qualifications."

Pan Hai remained silent, waiting for him to continue.

"To avoid suspicion," Lu Qian said calmly.

He knew better than anyone how much progress Class 25 had made.

There are no idiots in the class. Even if someone isn't good at math, it won't have a big impact on their high school math studies; it will only reduce their chances of getting the highest score.

Of course, this relies even more on the teacher's teaching ability.

If he were involved in setting the exam questions, and the results for Class 25 were released after the midterm exams, showing such significant improvement, people would definitely suspect that he leaked the questions.

Rather than being suspected, it's better to just go straight to the point and not participate in setting the questions.

Lu Qian didn't even specify the scope of the exam for the students.

What are you planning?

He always taught problem-solving strategies; once you understood them, you could even derive the solutions on the spot.

avoid arousing suspicion……

Director Pan's eyes flickered. He had climbed up from the bottom and quickly understood Lu Qian's thoughts.

"Hmm... okay, then you don't need to participate in setting the questions this time. Teacher Shao will still lead the team."

Shao Mingrui leaned back in his chair, his eyes losing their luster.

Everything was fine just now, how did it change in an instant?

Looking at Lu Qian again, her eyes held a hint of resentment.

Aren't we the best problem-solving partners?
