Slowly but surely, we arrived at Part 5 of our series of articles summarizing the experiences, practices and solutions of the digital or absence examination period of the Faculty of Pharmacy. In addition, this article provides a reflection on one of the most exciting institutes of the Faculty, the Institute of Pharmaceutical Technology and Biopharmacy. Students usually interact with the Institute in the third year, where they learn, among other things, the mechanism of operation and handling of the machines needed to make different pharmaceuticals, and how to make tablets, granules, and other formulations. In the previous part of our series, you could read about how the digital exam period was conducted around the house of the Department of Pharmaceutical Biology.

Good advice as digital send-off
It is advisable to emphasize already in the Neptune message of the exam that they should be more patient because of the overloaded system, often making screenshots or photos of the screen with their answers. It can also help a lot if the exam is announced in the late afternoon. In a problematic technical situation, both the professor and the student need to remain calm and the student questions should be answered in turn. In this case, it is advisable to enter the Unipoll interface (if possible) and check the level of completion of the interested student's question set.
