Hi Eva! True, it can create strategic challenges. Somtimes I have varied the type of assessment as opposed to the location. For example:
-having students explain something in their own words, demonstrate an application, or provide an example or scenario
-provide a scenario and ask them verbally how they would address or resolve the situation
-ask students to come up with their own quiz questions, then answer them in written form or verbally
-ask students to explain how they interpreted a particular question and reasoned their responses
These strategies may not take the place of traditional tests, but perhaps can supplement the holistic assessment of students in challenging situations.
Thanks!
