Abstract
In Baden-Wuerttemberg there is a compulsory written final examination in vocational schools (Berufsschulen) which also applies to the school subject German. This exam, which is introduced here, uses closed tasks along with open tasks. In this context the general question will be discussed what a skills-oriented exam can look like and what types of tasks are most appropriate to the subject and the type of school. In order to probe the potential of closed tasks, these will be compared to the traditional methods of assessment in the school subject German, especially to essay writing. Examples regarding different skills will be used to show the capabilities and the shortcomings of different types of tasks.
