In the teaching phase, the course will be taught by the course coordinator or a colleague teacher. The course coordinator has to be available during the course as a contact person for the students.

A course is assessed by the examiner: a staff member of the UU or UMCU with a teaching qualification. Often the course coordinators themselves are the examiners. More information about assessment can be found in the Education and Examination Regulations. For questions or advice regarding assessment, please contact the Assessment Support Panel.

Examiners must assign a grade for an oral test either immediately or within 24 hours after its completion. For a written test, the assessment must be recorded within 10 working days from the day the test was taken.

Upon request, students have the right to inspect their marked work for a period of 20 working days after the announcement of the results. Please notify the students when inspection of their work is possible.

Please try to provide comprehensive feedback on students’ assignments. Students have expressed a desire for feedback on their work, as it helps them identify areas of improvement and enhances their learning process.

Students with extra time

During your exam there might be students that are entitled to extra time. To qualify for this, students need to have a contract issued by the academic counsellor. Students that are entitled to extra time can be viewed in OSIRIS Supervisor. GSLS students always receive a copy of the contract so in case the course examiner has no access to OSIRIS Supervisor, students can be asked to provide their contract directly. 

Students outside of the GSLS may not have a received a contract. In this case OSIRIS Supervisor needs to be used to determine whether the student qualifies. If you have no access to OSIRIS Supervisor the academic counsellor can perform this check.
