Using multi-mode assessments to engage engineering students in their learning experience

摘要

This paper describes the research and practice on the reforming of the examination method of engineering graphics at Zhejiang University. Based on the theory of standardizing general examinations and emphasizing key examinations, a new combined examination method of multiple modes has been explored and practised. The examination modes include unified large-scale examination mode, interviewing mode, additional score mode by designing an object or writing a paper, and do-it-yourself mode, i.e. self-questioning, self-answering and self-evaluating. The method forms a good synergy between unified large-scale examination and free exertion. The final percentage score is given on the basis of the assessment mode reform.
