  abstract =     "In this paper it is claimed that traditional
                 examination often is destructive to the process of
                 learning. It does not matter how good intentions
                 educators have, it is the way they examine students
                 that will have the strongest impact on how the students
                 learn. The goal of the ExCon project is intervention in
                 traditional examination. The paper discusses an
                 alternative model for understanding assessment and
                 examination of students. Product assessment is
                 questioned as an appropriate approach. Instead it is
                 argued that educators should, to a larger extent,
                 provide the student with questions and other types of
                 feedback during the ongoing activity and use
                 communication as an important element of the
                 examination. For this purpose, a software prototype for
                 a mobile computing device to support the educator was
                 designed and developed. An evaluation of the prototype
                 was performed and the paper ends with some thoughts on
                 the viability of the prototype in supporting
                 alternative assessment and examination.",
