Design and Realization of Multimedia-Examinations for large Numbers of Participants in University
We report on successfully accomplished Multimedia Examinations in a physics lecture for engineering freshmen. The use of New Media enables us to create new types of questions, including Java-based applets, and questions requiring Internet-based research. These new forms are presented in detail. Economically priced hardware solutions and user-friendly software for both teachers as well as students are realised in collaboration with PROMETHEAN CORPORATION. A first evaluation - which is very countenancing - is presented; our e-assessment finds general approval in the participants' opinions.
