FLOWoral: Examination tool

FLOWoral enables administrative support of oral exams. The assessor can use the flow as the time schedule of participants and take notes digitally as the participant perform live at the exam. These notes can then be shared with the participant afterwards. A grade is then submitted by the assessor which can be distributed to the respective student systems when the assessment period ends.

When a comment is added you can choose to share it with the entire flow or/and the co-assessor(s) on the flow. If shared with the co-assessors, the comments will be visible immediately. But if the comments are shared with the participants, they will be visible when the assessment period has ended and all marks have been finalised.
