Abstract

or more than two decades, university professors at the institute of study have implemented group oral examinations as a summative assessment strategy within their courses. This essay offers a critical reflection on the pedagogical benefits of this format, examining its impact on both instructors and students, while also addressing the practical and logistical challenges encountered in its sustained use. In the context of the rapid proliferation of artificial intelligence and the corresponding complications it introduces for traditional assessment practices, the authors argue that group oral examinations have gained renewed significance. Specifically, they highlight the capacity of this approach to promote authentic demonstration of student learning and to cultivate communication, collaboration, and critical thinking skills that are essential for post-graduate professional contexts.
