Pseudonymization of exams

JU have adopted pseudonymisation of the exam process for all paper-based exams and all e-exams in Inspera. This implies that students perform their exams without their personal identity (name, civic number) being known to the grader/examiner. Your identity will be concealed until the results have been reported to Ladok.

In order to maintain this anonymous chain of information, it is of major importance that you as a student, do not engage in any conversation directly with your teachers, regarding your exam before the results are reported.

Should there be an imminent need to inform your teachers of an obvious inadequacy or error, it's important to uphold the routes of contact according to the information below:

If the error occurs during the exam:

Contact the invigilators on site. They will ensure that your information reaches the course coordinator

If the error is found after the exam, but before the results have been reported to Ladok:

Contact Service Center, who will ensure your information reaches the course coordinator, without any personal information being disclosed. You may not contact any of your teachers directly during this state of affairs. The Service Center will give you feedback from your teachers.

If questions arise concerning the above, please contact Service Center via the Case Management System External link, opens in new window.
