Add to ORKGWe hypothesise that there are several benefits of allowing students to bring written materials and have some discussions during assessment – a more effective form of preparation and assessment of relevant knowledge and skills rather than short term memory and coping with pin-drop silent exam halls with invigilators policing against plagiarism. This assessment method reflects a more realistic setting within which we have to solve problems and perform analyses. Moreover, since we only need facilitators, not invigilators, administration of the exam will be less cumbersome. The students in this study are honours level economics studying a course on Economics of Poverty, Discrimination and Development at the University of Glasgow
