Call to end paper exams for digital generation
- jleyank 16y agoDepends on the subject. Yeah, a History final on a keyboard vs. bluebook is easier on the fingers (perhaps harder on the plagiarism?). Hard to do a math/science final, though, unless you've got a pretty fancy sketch input system - such as deriving thermodynamic relations, etc. Test's where the final answer isn't "4" as much as an application of math. Where it might get interesting is through the use of e-tests that allow for customization for each student. If each test is different (different question order, different numbers), certain kinds of cheating become harder. Grading becomes harder as well but I assume the software would facilitate that.
