Webinar: "Oral examination"
On campus proctored written examinations will not be possible during the Spring term due to the ongoing Covid-19 situation. In this situation it is important that we discuss other approaches that can be used, especially in assessment of higher order learning outcomes concerning ability to synthesise and design solutions to complex problems, as well as analyse and reason about complex phenomena.

This webinar explores approaches to conducting oral examinations (over Zoom) as a potential solution to assessment of complex course learning outcomes. Oral examinations have a long established tradition in Swedish higher education and provide a rich basis for assessment. We will discuss some ways to approach oral examination in relation to specific examples of learning outcomes as a way to exemplify different types of assessment strategies. Issues of equity and accountability will also be discussed.
