Project Digital examination

Halls for on-campus e-examination
Influence the Digital examination Project
Project owner: Lars Johansson
Project leader: Maria Nilsson
Steering group: Niklas Ericsson, Åsa Mellquist, Lena Sjöberg, Monika Hattinger, Karin Svensson, Fredrick Frendin.
Subproject
The Digital Examination project is conducted in three parallel sub-projects, all of which work closely together:
Pedagogical development
The sub-project aims to increase pedagogical competence and flexibility in digital examinations. It must review all digital examinations with a pedagogical approach. This means identifying areas for improvement, spreading good examples, and training teachers in a new system for digital examination.
Project manager: Maria Nilsson
Project participant: Emma Norberger
On-campus e-examination
The sub-project will implement a system for on-campus e-examination as well as rebuild and equip halls for digital floor exams. SUNET (Swedish University Network) has procured the system Inspera, which has already been implemented at 14 other universities in Sweden. The University will appeal against the agreement and implement the system. A number of prerequisites were discovered in a pilot study that was conducted in 2019 using an on-campus e-examination. Taking over and building on them, the sub-project continues the work.
Project manager: Linda Severinson
Project participants: Lisa Hed, Laila Jensen Sundgren, Mikael Andersson, Christian Jiresjö
Administrative support and process
The sub-project must review and quality-assure regulations, routines and processes linked to all digital examinations. This means reviewing and creating processes and routines for teachers, students and students with special educational support. It also means ensuring correct and secure information handling such as archiving, thinning and disclosure of theses and answers.
