CASELAP conducts the first virtual exam amid Covid-19
The University of Nairobi has successfully conducted its first ever end of semester examinations online.
More than 20 students taking Master of Arts in Environmental Law and Master of Arts in Environmental Policy were able to sit for their examinations right from the comfort of their homes.
The university shifted to online examinations in order to provide students with options to complete their studies at a time when face-to-face exams are impossible to be held because of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Speaking to the university’s communications team, Centre for Advanced studies in Environmental Law and Policy (CASELAP) Director, Dr. Collins Odote said, “We used Google platforms to administer our exams-first we invited our students to Google Classroom so that we are able to see all of them and then we used Google Meet to monitor or invigilate the process.”
The successful online examinations process follows intense weeks of teaching and learning also conducted virtually via Google Suite, Zoom and Webex among other eLearning platforms.
