This document discusses alternative exam formats that aim to reduce test anxiety, including collaborative exams where students can work together, formats that involve student participation in constructing exam questions, and quizzes based on collaborative projects rather than individual testing. Several proposed formats reference games shows like "Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?" and incorporate elements of games like voting questions off or phone a friend.
