Now, Chemistry 11500 students have had a look at what the future could hold thanks to a partnership between chemistry staff and faculty and Purdue Teaching and Learning Technologies (TLT), part of Purdue Online.
“It’s just not a good testing environment.” Little wonder Rienstra-Kiracofe had been looking for an alternative to the mass testing of thousands of general chemistry students in Elliott almost since he arrived at Purdue. "If somebody coughs you can hear it all over the auditorium," chemistry Professor Jonathan Rienstra-Kiracofe said. Dim lighting in spots and great acoustics only exacerbate the situation. Positioned in a theater seat, hunching over a lapboard, juggling a paper test and a scannable answer sheet is unwieldy for students to say the least. Elliott Hall of Music is a fantastic venue to see a show, but a great place to take an exam? Not so much.
