Abstract

We use the axiomatic approach for the design of examination. Each course is identified with a set of learning objectives, and an exam is composed of exercises each of which is identified with the learning objectives that it assesses. Our results characterizes several well-known structures for the exams in terms of the assignment of learning objectives: partitions, symmetric balanced collections, orderings.
