Statistics
Since March 2020, digital examination formats have also been possible at the HU. These include digital on-site examinations, remote examinations, take-home examinations, assignments and other digitally supported formats such as portfolios.
Overview of the examination numbers at the HU
The chart shows the number of examination cases at the HU. Each examination participation counts as one case. As a general rule, fewer examinations are taken in summer semesters than in winter semesters.
Overall, written examinations dominate with a share of between 65% (Covid period) and almost 85% of all examinations. In addition to written examinations - which account for an average of around 50% of all examinations - these include term papers, take-home examinations etc. and final theses.

Digital examinations (in particular remote examinations and digital on-site examinations) were only introduced at the ZSP-HU in spring 2020. These are conducted via Exam Moodle, which can also be used for other written examinations (take-home, homework, etc.). The information on digital examinations at a distance and on-site refers to the use of the examination moodle. Since the end of the Covid pandemic, the demand for digital face-to-face examinations (digital written exams) has been steadily increasing.
