AB  - Self-assessment is an intrinsic characteristic in human development. Since the first seconds of breathing, humans test their experience to form and advance their knowledge. However, in the current western educational system, evaluations, a natural human process, have turned into activities that bring stress, anxiety, and nervousness to students. For this, researchers replace most of the set exams for unannounced constant examinations throughout the semester. Along with these, the course design included activities that supported students’ knowledge to be prepared for the new type of examination. Researchers applied these examinations in two courses of structural analysis in civil engineering and one course of Structures in architecture, with a total of 63 students. At the end of the semester, we conducted a survey to learn students’ perceptions and their feelings with these types of evaluations. The results indicate students find unannounced constant evaluations to be helpful in their learning process. Although students were nervous at the beginning of the semester, the supporting activities throughout the semester were helpful to improve their examination performance, and their overall course performed. Finally, students feel more confident with their knowledge after the course due to the unannounced constant examinations. The authors discuss the possible factors driving the results, next steps and explore the avenues academia could take to form better assessment methods in the direction to build academic integrity. Implications for research and practice are provided.
