Divine Word University (DWU) will now be the first in Papua New Guinea to deliver its examinations online.
The online examination is an innovative concept of the university after it was successfully introduced in last year’s second semester examination.
Students will bring their laptops into the examination rooms, open up the online examination and type their answers in the spaces provided.
Their answers will be automatically recorded into the system for their lecturers to pick up and mark.
The online examinations also coincides with the inaugural examinations for DWU’s first intake of Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) students.
The 29 MBBS students will sit for their exams this week.
More than 1600 students enrolled in other full-time undergraduate programmes will also be sitting for their online examinations over two weeks, starting this week.
