Dear Colleagues,
This topic may have been raised
some time ago; I apologise for
duplication if it has.
The University is currently
revising the guidelines on the
use of calculators in examinations.
I would be interested to find out
current practice in other Universities.
1) Do you supply standard calculators
to students?
2) If so, which type or range of calculators
are supplied?
3) If you do not supply standard calculators,
do you issue guidelines from central
administration regarding the approved
types, or is it the responsibility of the
Faculty/School to issue information
to students?
4) Is the type of calculator to be used in
an examination indicated on the front
of the exam paper?
5) What checks are made to ensure
students are using the recommended
type(s)?
Thank you.
