Important information about the exam tomorrow
Written on 03.08.2020 13:16 by Sebastian Biewer
Hi everyone,
my name is Sebastian and I will coordinate the exam tomorrow. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, there are several university-wide safety instructions that you have to follow in order to be allowed to write the exam. Please read this text carefully!
1) It is absolutely necessary for you to bring your own protection mask with you. Students who have a doctor’s certificate that they cannot wear protection masks have to bring their own face shields and wear these instead of a mask.
2) Please bring the following things to the exam:
- Pens (non-erasable pens in dark blue or black)
- Your student ID card & passport (or ID card or Aufenthaltstitel)
- A pocket calculator
- Something to drink and (no noisy) food if you want
- Your face mask
Please note:
- We will provide you with sufficient amount of paper, please don't bring your own.
- Any cheat sheets, books, etc. are not allowed
3) When & how to enter the building?
- We plan to start the exam at 9:15 and finish at 11:15. However, keeping distance to each other and following the safety instructions has priority, so we may start or finish later.
- The exam takes place in the building of Günter-Hotz lecture hall (GHH, AudiMo). We assigned you a seat either in the Lecture Hall (Hörsaal) or in the Foyer. Please remember where you are seated and in which part of the building. You find this information on your personal status page in CMS.
- Each part of the building must be entered through a designated entrance. You find this information in this picture:
- Please be no later than 8:59 in the proximity of your designated entrance door. At any time, keep a distance of at least 1.5m to other people.
- Eventually, the staff members will open the doors to let you in. Inside the building, you have to wear your face mask at any time and you must try to keep the distance of 1.5m to other students. You go directly to your place and you take all your belongings with you (this is different to non-Corona times, where you leave your bags at the side of the lecture hall).
- We expect that people with problems wearing the face mask can take it off during a large part of the exam. Please listen to your supervisor and take your mask off only when explicitly allowed.
4) If your answer is "yes" to one or more of the following questions, then you are not allowed to attend the exam. If you provide a doctor’s certificate to the examination office later on, the examination attempt will be canceled and will not count.
Did you have definite contact with a Covid-19 patient, who was tested positive, in the last 14 days?
Do you have any of the following symptoms?
- Cough / Husten
- Sore throat / Halsschmerzen
- Nasal congestion / runny nose / Schnupfen
- Diarrhoea /Durchfall
- Fever /Fieber
- Aches and pains / Gliederschmerzen
- Loss of smell (e.g. no longer able to smell burnt food) / Geruchsverlust
- Loss of taste (e.g. unable to distinguish when food is burnt) / Geschmacksverlust
5) Please take these instructions seriously, both for your own safety and the safety of others. Also, you always must follow the instructions of the staff members in the lecture hall. Otherwise, you can be excluded from the exam.
6) If you have questions, contact me (biewer at depend.uni-saarland.de) and Martina Maggio directly via e-mail. Do not use the anonymous feedback form.
See you tomorrow,
Sebastian
