Assessment Elements

• Activity at workshops
  This course is based on the flipped classroom model - a type of blended learning in which students are introduced to content at home and practice working through it in the classroom. The audience is divided into teams (max of 5 people). During the course, each team will go through the sequential stages of Digital Transformation strategy development. At each stage, using online training materials, each team prepares the next step of the Digital Transformation strategy at home. Results are discussed and refined in classroom workshops.
• Test
• Exam
  Examination format: The exam is taken written. The platform: The exam is taken on the MS Teams platform. Students are required to join a session 5 minutes before the beginning. The computers must meet the following technical requirements: https://docs.microsoft.com/ru-ru/microsoftteams/hardware-requirements-for-the-teams-app. A student is supposed to follow the requirements below: - Check your computer for compliance with technical requirements no later than 5 days before the exam; - Sign in with your corporate account (@edu.hse.ru); - Check your microphone, speakers or headphones, webcam, Internet connection (we recommend connecting your computer to the network with a cable, if possible); - Prepare the necessary writing equipment, such as pens, pencils, pieces of paper, and others. - Disable applications on the computer's task other than the MS Teams application or the browser that will be used to log in to the MS Teams platform. Students are not allowed to: - Turn off the video camera; - Leave the place where the exam task is taken (go beyond the camera's viewing angle); - Involve outsiders for help during the exam, talk to outsiders during the examination tasks. Students are allowed to: - Write on a piece of paper, use a pen for making notes and calculations; - Use a calculator; - Turn on the microphone to answer the teacher’s questions; - Ask a teacher for additional information related to understanding the exam task. Connection failures: - A short-term communication failure during the exam is considered to be the loss of a student's network connection with the MS Teams platform for no longer than 1 minute. - A long-term communication failure during the exam is considered to be the loss of a student's network connection with the MS Teams platform for longer than 1 minute. - A student cannot continue to participate in the exam if there is a long-term communication failure appeared. - The retake procedure is similar to the exam procedure. In case of long-term communication failure in the MS Teams platform during the examination task, the student must notify the teacher, record the fact of loss of connection with the platform (screenshot, a response from the Internet provider). Then contact the manager of a program with an explanatory note about the incident to decide on retaking the exam.
