e-Exam Trial – Expression of Interest and Consent to Participate


Form

Why this form? ...

This form is to express interest and provide consent to participate in the e-Exam trials being run in your unit/course. It relates to three parts of the study:

1) Pre-exam practice session and short feedback survey

2) Participation in the e-Exam trial itself (via typing or handwriting)

3) Post-session survey (done just after finishing your assessment/exam on the day).

 

Be sure to read the 'research study information sheet' [PDF link] then complete this form.

A general information flyer [pdf] is also available, as is a set of FAQs [pdf]

 

Note! if you just want to handwrite (and have that choice!) ...

We would still like to be able to use your responses so we can do comparative analysis between the responses of hand-writers and typers for the same assessment/exam. So, please consider choosing 'yes' to items 2) and 3) below and be involved. This helps us build a valid comparison into the research study.

Next step for typists:

Book a time for the pre-exam practice / laptop-set up session.

 

For students who will *TYPE* the exam. Bring your laptop and mouse to get your laptop checked for compatibility with e-Exam system USB stick.

You must have your laptop checked to ensure all will be well! This will also save stress on the day. It also gives you a chance to practice the procedures, software etc with help on hand.

 

Please book a time slot for the practice/set-up session via the Doodle Poll link below.
