English

Subject field(s)
  • Examinations and Competitions (Education)
DEF

an examination in which students are allowed to bring into the examination room, or consult any reference material they wish.

DEF

a written examination during which an examinee is permitted to consult references(as a text book, dictionary, or anthology) to answer questions calling for organization, analysis, or judgment, rather than memorization.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Docimologie
CONT

L'examen avec «volume ouvert» diminue la tension chez les élèves. De plus, il s'adapte à peu près à n'importe quelle situation de mesure du rendement scolaire, même dans le domaine des attitudes, Il favorise le recours à des tâches impliquant des processus mentaux complexes. Puisque l'étudiant dispose du volume. Le professeur se doit d'axer son questionnaire sur des aspects tels que la compréhension, l'application, l'analyse, la synthèse et l'évaluation. Par contre, cette formule risque de réduire les efforts d'étude chez les élèves. Ils négligent la mémorisation et la compréhension en se fiant trop sur le volume pour les dépanner. Les connaissances tendent à devenir plus superficielles et les notes de cours, moins à point.
