Jamia Millia Islamia University (JMI) began the online open-book examination for the odd semester and final year students from January 18, 2021. Everything went well and there was hardly any complaint related to technical glitches from students. Exams for undergraduate courses were held in the morning shift while postgraduate students appeared in the afternoon shift.
A total of 1008 students from undergraduate courses and 1099 students from postgraduate courses took an exam today. The exams are to be held till February 19, 2021. Teachers were present in their respective departments to respond to queries of students related to question papers and other issues. Students were given 3 hours to write their answers while 1 hour was provided to upload their answer sheets on the portal. An alternative email id was also provided to students if in case uploading answer sheets on the portal was difficult due to low internet speed.
A total of about 9 thousand students will appear in this open book examination which will continue till 19th February 2021. While wishing good luck to students appearing in the examination Prof. Najma Akhtar, Vice Chancellor, JMI said that considering the demand of students and parents and keeping in mind the health concerns of students, decision to conduct open book examination was taken. It was a big challenge to conduct the exam as we have to save the academic year as well as health concerns of students. Online classes for next semester will start soon after the conclusion of the examination, Prof. Akhtar said.
