Why oral exams?
Oral exams are a traditional assessment method where students verbally present and defend their work, answering questions from an examiner. Denmark is reintroducing them for 16-19 year olds to combat AI cheating because they make it much harder for students to pass off AI-generated content as their own. It forces them to demonstrate genuine understanding and critical thinking.
