This year, I've designed non-exams for my Human Geo students that will assess their ability to apply what they've learned over the course of the year to real-world problems using full open access to the Net as well as collaboration with their peers during "exam time".

Study shows students can overcome test anxiety by writing about it before the exam.

I had seen this report as well. It's very interesting that just by writing about your fears you can help overcome them. My son once had a writing assignment and he got very upset because he got writer's block and just couldn't write. Teacher told him to write about not being able to write instead of writing about the actual topic. Thought that was a great suggestion. Son interestingly enough never suffered from writer's block after that.
