I would add a twist to it, which is to give each student ten printed articles from which to accumulate material to handwrite the essay in class. Five or the ten would be totally unrelated, two would be strongly related, two would have a medium relation, and one would be mildly related. It's the student's job to figure out the useful sources and write the essay, all within 120 minutes. In this way, the students don't have to hallucinate content for the essay.
- bdangubic 2y agothis is an overkill... the universities need to simply do what is done in many other countries - oral final exams. let them study all semester (as is done in many other countries) and then come to the oral exam and defend your knowledge in person.
