With the EXAM system, you can conduct an electronic exam that the student takes in the university’s electronically monitored exam room. An electronic exam here refers to an exam taken on a computer, which can be, for example, a final exam, weekly assignment, preliminary test, or any other exam aimed at verifying the student’s knowledge or competence. EXAM enables flexible electronic exam taking.

Exam process

• The teacher creates an electronic exam in advance in their university’s EXAM system.
• The teacher sets an exam period during which the exam must be taken. The recommended exam period length is typically at least 2-4 weeks.
• Once the teacher has published the exam, the student books an exam time in their university’s EXAM system.
• The exam is taken in the university’s electronic exam room, which has centralized video surveillance. The student decides when to take the exam during the exam period.
• After the student has taken the exam, the teacher assesses the exam submission in their university’s EXAM system.
• The assessment data of the exam submission is recorded in the university’s student information system manually, using a CSV file, or automatically, depending on university-specific instructions.
