What is your Einschätzung of how lectures and exams are run in the summer term? I can‘t really imagine old-fashioned, large public research universities like heidelberg or munich to cope with this in an ordinary manner, since these places have never even heard of online klausureinsicht. I am a stem-mittelbauer in austria and things are running smoothly over here, since we have the opportunity to hand out „hard“ problem sets. But what does it look like in economics, where basically the whole teaching system relies on „forcibg“ students to attend übungen by not posting solutions in moodle etc, because then nobody wpuld ever show up? Thanks for sharing your thoughts

Finally, even teaching economics in Germany arrives in the digital age.
Can simply copy what the US is doing for years. Everything online, freely accessible knowledge transfer like in those growth models.

Take a look at the excellent R package exams. Very easy to use for non-STATA ppl (i.e. real economists). Use it for online exams with random numbers for each individual student. You're welcome.
Thanks, sounds interesting. Now all we need is for the admin to accept this format.
