As we are all aware, we are currently going through global pandemic which has affected every aspect of our lives. We have experienced loss, financial instability and psychological trauma . We have reviewed our assessment and examination timetables and we came to a conclusion that our academic progress is compromised. We are requesting that we breach an agreement on how we may alleviate the pressure we are experiencing currently . We are very well aware of the pressure that is posed on to you by higher authorities, however we request we make way for alternative methods of assessment. We request that our first semester exams convert into continuous assessment and learning. We as a class have discussed that we will ensure our competence is not tempered with in any way. Furthermore we request a meeting to elaborate on our request.
The faculty has remained silent on our request for alternative assessment methods despite the signatures we have gathered. Email the department dean today and demand they schedule the meeting we requested. Keep the pressure on them until they agree to sit down with our class representatives.
October 24, 2020
The momentum behind this plea proves that our struggles are undeniable and widely shared across the department. Send this link to your class representatives now to ensure they bring our specific demands to the administration during the next meeting.

I have experienced the effects of the pandemic in all aspects of lives. And regarding the assessment and examination time tables, my academic progress is compromised. I kindly request the 1st semester to be converted to continous assessment and learning
