dugga digital assessment
developed by teachers for teachers
Our exam platform is created together with teachers, students and administrators, based on scientific research. Dugga is a spin-off from a research project at the Stockholm School of Economics, Stockholm University, the Royal Institute of Technology, Umeå University, HAN University of Applied Sciences and Stics Research.
Dugga received research fundings from the Swedish Innovation Agency Vinnova, under the Ministry of Economic Affairs, through the initiative “School of the Future”. The directives underlined the importance of developing the platform based on scientific research in the same way as the school system in general is based on scientific research.

dugga ensures fair assessment
“We believe that no one’s grade should be based on one’s gender, last name, skin colour or in-class behaviour”
stress-free & easy-to-use
With the development of Dugga, we started with teachers who were not very knowledgeable about IT, computers and the like. We wanted to build a digital assessment platform that was so easy to use that even less computer-skilled educators could easily start using Dugga.
“Each child deserves equal opportunities and the right to quality education.”
“As teachers, we should take away unnecessary stress for students during exams.“
secure & reliable
Dugga ensures that relevant legislation is followed such as the Education Act (2010:800), the Higher Education Ordinance (1993:100) and the General Data Protection Regulation (2017/18:105) commonly referred to as GDPR.

“All my students need to feel comfortable navigating digital assessments in order to build their confidence and minimize anxiety. That way they are not worried about how to take the test: instead they can focus on what is being asked on the test.”
Elizabeth Shannon, Teacher and Department Head, Sarasota School of Arts and Sciences
“One of the advantages of Dugga is that there are many different functionalities to use when creating exams, giving room for flexibility and variation in knowledge assessment. Another advantage of Dugga is that tests by default are anonymized, which ensures equality in assessment.”
