Our exam system supports multiple choice and, indeed, collecting that part automatically. (We can still go through the boxes recognized as tick or blank en-masse to check for recognition mistakes.) However, they’re only allowed to make up 20% of an exam according to university-wide rules.
Here, students can also view their graded exams online. There are some professors that don’t do it out of fear of the exams questions being leaked. In that case, you’d go there in person, but you would definitely not be able to just go through the exams on your own until you find the right one. That would never pass data protection laws.
I love the correction system we have at my university. All the exams are pseudonymized with a sticker you receive during the exam and scanned after completion. About 10 to 30 people are involved in correcting the exams for one course. We don’t know who the exams belong to as we only see the scanned version on our tablet or computer. Each task is corrected by a different set of people. We can select to see only a single task or subtask to streamline the process of correction, too. Furthermore, all the tasks are checked twice independently. Once done, the system can assign the exams back to the students. I love how it’s fair and “anonymous” by design.
[…] it was long-standing tradition to only feature portraits of deceased individuals on currency and coin.
That tradition became law with an 1866 Act of Congress
Does the treasury department know something that we don’t about events that may or may not happen before the anniversary?
I run my own matrix server, too. I’ve never had any issues with updates. Honestly, I just pull the new docker image without thinking twice about it. It is risky, of course, but I have daily automated backups, so I’m not too concerned. Personally, I felt like setting up a matrix server for the first time was the biggest pain in the butt. It’s extremely convoluted with very poorly written documentation that is often outdated or incomplete. After I got through that, it was smooth-sailing from there. Setting up mautrix bridges one you got Synapse to work is actually really easy, though.
