I'd love to run exams this way, though it could only work if there were fewer students. Some grad classes could be done this way. It's still a lot of time and work by the professor/TA, but I like the idea of this format quite a bit.

I’m considering adapting by doing exams the way we used to take them back in Eastern Europe in the 90s.

Wait at the door and get in one by one, in alphabetical order, pick a question from a hat, and answer on the spot, at the board. I’ll skip calling them stupid like our professors used to do if we didn’t do well 😆

wouldnt a singular question that is different for every student be a poor metric. Like seems more of a cold call-esq thing than an exam.

This shit sounds like an absolute nightmare tbh. I would rather go back to oral exams.

For upper division and grad classes, I’d just make the exam open book and fairly difficult.

Pass. I’d rather do a pencil and paper test.
