Some of them work in the Intensive Care Unit. And now Erasmus MC is facilitating an in-person exam that might be attended by four hundred people,\u201d says the student, who wishes to remain anonymous.<\/p>\n<p>In recent weeks, several medical students have expressed their concerns about this fact to <em>EM<\/em>, the dean and Erasmus MC\u2019s student council, but nevertheless, the exam will take place as scheduled. \u201cErasmus MC says that so far, things have gone well. I think it\u2019s inappropriate that so many people will get together, considering the strain healthcare workers are under,\u201d says the student.<\/p>\n<p>This student\u2019s exam is not the only in-person exam scheduled to take place in the coming period; when the current lockdown was announced, the university stated that all exams would take place as planned, including the ones administered on campus. Nineteen exams will have to be sat in person, on campus, in the weeks leading up to 19 January. \u201cFuture exams that have not yet been scheduled will be organised in the best possible fashion allowed by the coronavirus restrictions in force at that time,\u201d an EUR spokeswoman stated. However, it should be noted that the university will offer the exams online, as well, so that students who are ill or have symptoms can sit them, too.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u201885 per cent want in-person exams\u2019<\/h2><p>Churches and other religious institutions came in for a great deal of criticism when they insisted on having socially distanced services, despite the pandemic. So why is it that universities are hardly given any flak for organising their exams as scheduled?<\/p>\n<p>Maarten Frens, Erasmus MC\u2019s dean of teaching, understands why the students are concerned, but also stated that the decision to have the exam take place as planned was not made by Erasmus MC. \u201cThis is very much the approach taken by Erasmus University as a whole. Exams are so vital that they are allowed to take place in person, according to the Ministry of Education. The university is implementing that policy and saying: everything will go on as planned.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, it has been found that online proctored exams are not perfect, either. Erasmus Magazine has written on this subject before, and the results of a survey conducted by <em>EM<\/em> confirmed it. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/2020\/12\/17\/students-now-rate-remote-learning-higher-but-many-students-have-experienced-problems-with-online-exams\/?noredirect=en_US\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Half of the almost 500 students who took the survey indicated that they had experienced problems with online proctored exams<\/a>.

Online proctored exams can also be problematic and stressful. We have found that many students prefer in-person exams. When they are given a choice between an online exam and an in-person exam, some 85 to 90 per cent of them will come to the exam venue to sit the exam.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Frens wishes to point out that great care is taken to ensure that the in-person exams are COVID-proof. \u201cWe strictly comply with all the regulations imposed by the RIVM. And if students are unable or unwilling to come to campus, they are free to opt for the proctored exam and sit the exam online, if they have a good reason for doing so. We do offer that possibility. Students can apply for an online exam at short notice \u2013 for instance, if they develop symptoms just before the exam.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Students who fall into a high-risk group are also welcome to avail themselves of this option, he says. \u201cThese are students who are at increased risk themselves, as well as students who think they might jeopardise other people if they were to sit the exam in person \u2013 for instance, if they associate with vulnerable people in their personal lives or work environment.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Preventing students from falling behind<\/h2><p>How is this done at other universities? The Association of Universities in the Netherlands (VSNU) says it differs from one university to the next. A VSNU spokesperson said, \u201cSome universities don\u2019t have in-person exams at all, and other universities do everything in person, because they don\u2019t want to offer online proctored exams. And there are also universities that offer hybrid methods.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Previously, the VSNU argued in favour of pilot studies involving rapid coronavirus tests, thus allowing universities to offer safe in-person exams and more classroom teaching. \u201cThe Lower House liked that proposal. The first pilot studies offering this method will kick off in Groningen soon.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A spokesperson for the Ministry of Education explained that when the lockdown regulations were drafted, the Cabinet chose to keep all classes online where possible, to minimise student journeys on public transport and interpersonal contacts. However, the Cabinet exempted the supervision of vulnerable pupils, exams and practicals from this rule, as it seeks to do everything in its power to prevent students from falling behind in their studies. However, the exemptions are subject to a requirement: the restrictions imposed by the RIVM must be observed.<\/p>\n\n\t<div data-name=\"acf\/posts-list\" >\n\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"space-y-6 md:space-y-8\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"text-lg md:text-xl\">Lees meer<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<ul class=\"grid items-strecth grid-cols-1 gap-2 md:gap-4 lg:gap-8\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<li class=\"@container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<div data-component=\"teaser-post-small\" class=\"block-theme-sand  relative flex h-full bg-sand-300\n\tblock-theme-violet:bg-white block-theme-violet:text-purple block-theme-mocha:bg-sand-500 block-theme-mocha:text-brown\n\tblock-theme-sand:bg-sand-300 block-theme-sand:text-neutral-900\n\tblock-theme-violet:outline-purple-100 block-theme-violet:outline-1 block-theme-violet:outline-t-0\n\ttheme-mocha:bg-white! theme-violet:bg-white! theme-sand:bg-white!\n\tflex-row gap-4 @md:gap-8 p-4 @md:p-6\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"image:w-full image:aspect-square image:object-cover shrink-0 size-17.5 @sm:size-21.25 @md:size-30 @lg:size-40\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"460\" height=\"323\" src=\"https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/04\/20141117\/big-brother-tentamen-exam-rachel-sender-smaller-2.jpg?image-crop-positioner-ts=1766139209\" class=\"attachment-square_lg size-square_lg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/04\/20141117\/big-brother-tentamen-exam-rachel-sender-smaller-2.jpg?image-crop-positioner-ts=1766139209 2000w, https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/04\/20141117\/big-brother-tentamen-exam-rachel-sender-smaller-2-300x211.jpg?image-crop-positioner-ts=1766139209 300w, https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/04\/20141117\/big-brother-tentamen-exam-rachel-sender-smaller-2-875x615.jpg?image-crop-positioner-ts=1766139209 875w, https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/04\/20141117\/big-brother-tentamen-exam-rachel-sender-smaller-2-1280x899.jpg?image-crop-positioner-ts=1766139209 1280w, https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/04\/20141117\/big-brother-tentamen-exam-rachel-sender-smaller-2-1600x1124.jpg?image-crop-positioner-ts=1766139209 1600w, https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/04\/20141117\/big-brother-tentamen-exam-rachel-sender-smaller-2-150x105.jpg?image-crop-positioner-ts=1766139209 150w, https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/04\/20141117\/big-brother-tentamen-exam-rachel-sender-smaller-2-225x158.jpg?image-crop-positioner-ts=1766139209 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 460px) 100vw, 460px\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t<div class=\"flex flex-col gap-2 md:gap-4 \">\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"text-md @lg:text-lg\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/2020\/09\/21\/two-students-really-annoyed-by-the-revoked-diplomas-and-exams-i-think-its-unreasonable\/\" class=\"absolute-link text-current hocus:underline inline-block\">\n\t\t\t\tStudents really annoyed by the revoked diplomas and exams: \u2018I think it\u2019s unreasonable\u2019\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/h3>\n\n\t\t<div class=\"flex flex-wrap gap-4 items-center\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"sr-only\">Gepubliceerd op:<\/span>\n\t\t\t<time class=\"text-sm font-soehne text-neutral-900\" datetime=\"2020-09-21\">21 September 2020<\/time>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t<ul data-component=\"list-badges\" class=\"flex items-center gap-2 flex-wrap\" aria-label=\"Geplaatst in categorie\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<li>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div data-component=\"badge\" class=\"block-theme-violet:bg-purple font-soehne font-bold text-sm bg-brown-600 block-theme-violet:bg-purple text-white py-[2px] px-2\">\n\t\t\t\t\tEducation\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/ul>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Proctored exams: &#039;a realistic alternative&#039;<\/h2><p>But can\u2019t all exams be sat remotely, using online proctoring? \u201cThe Ministry did not want to get down to the nitty-gritty for each individual discipline,\u201d said the Ministry\u2019s spokesperson. \u201cIt\u2019s better for the education institutions themselves to make those decisions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It should be noted that universities are not required to administer in-person exams.
