Most Delhi University students not in favour of open-book exams at home

The referendum, released by DUTA on May 3, got more than 51,000 responses in 48 hours, mostly from those enrolled in regular courses, the teachers' body said.

DUTA has been opposing the university's decision to hold online open book examinations (OBE).

In the survey, 38 per cent of students said they have not been able to access study material even if it has been provided to them. Nearly 50 per cent of the students said they have not received material and also cited inability to access it.

According to the survey, only 28 percent of students have been able to attend more than 50 per cent of the online classes. Many of the students said they left for home for mid-semester break, which included Holi and were caught unaware during the lockdown.
