Capacity
Many students can take an individual oral exam at the same time – in one room, with one supervisor.
For educators and institutions
Oral assessment at scale – with the yardstick kept in the teacher’s hands.
Polibeli helps where take-home assignments no longer give enough certainty about independent knowledge, and there is not enough teaching time for traditional oral exams.
What the institution gains
Verifiability
Questions, answers and assessment rationale are retrievable. Teachers review documented material instead of reconstructing an answer from memory.
Consistency
Based on pre-approved material and uniform requirements – the same yardstick for every student.
Typical uses
- 01
End-of-term oral exams for large courses
Oral exams for courses with hundreds of students, in several rounds, with one set of topics and requirements.
- 02
Mid-term oral check-ins
Shorter, regular oral checks during the term – where so far there was only capacity for written tests.
- 03
Checking the knowledge behind take-home work
An oral assessment linked to the assignment’s subject: students show in their own words that they understand what they submitted.
- 04
Mock exams and preparation
Oral mock exams before school-leaving or final exams, with feedback per requirement.
What does a room test need?
- An exam room with one laptop per student and a supported Chrome or Edge browser
- A headset with microphone for every laptop and a stable network connection
- At least one subject with teacher-approved topics and requirements
- A student roster with assigned exam IDs, and a room supervisor
- Alignment with the institution’s data protection and exam regulations
