In the first subject, the students had to answer several questions and solve several requirements, and in the second they had to write a composition, of at least 150 words, in which to present the summary of the first text.

What we need to know about digitized assessment
What happens after the papers are handed in? Because only from now on, practically, the novelty of these exams begins. Teachers scan them in the presence of students using special scanners, connected to a laptop or computer on which the digitized assessment application is installed. “Students' works are booklet-type, stapled, and you can't feed them into regular scanners, so special ones were needed. The operation is very simple, the scanner has a physical and a virtual button. The scanning is done without the secrecy of the first page, with names and everything (…) After it has been scanned, the physical work is placed in an envelope, sealed, kept sealed, we do not go to it”, explained the Secretary of State Sorin Ion.
Once entered into the application, the papers are randomly distributed to two evaluator teachers who also correct them digitally. The final mark is the arithmetic mean to two decimal places, without rounding of the marks awarded and calculated by the IT application on the platform. If the difference between the two grades is greater than one point, the paper is automatically and randomly sent to two other assessors. Then, the final average is calculated again taking into account only the evaluation of the last two teachers.
