MP Testing Policy and Procedures
Testing Policy and Procedures
Please be advised that during this program, you may be required to take examinations remotely with the assistance of proctoring tools used to preserve academic integrity and fairness during remote exams. Such proctoring tools used during remote exams may include, but are not limited to, the utilization of video and/or audio capabilities to examine, scan, evaluate, and/or monitor you, your workstation, associated areas, and surroundings (“Exam Conditions”). By continuing to remain in this program, you consent to these Exam Conditions. If you do not consent or wish to withdraw your consent, please contact the Office of Student Affairs, and other arrangements may be made, such as on-site testing.
ProctorFree
The MP program may use Proctor Free, a third-party proctoring service, for some exams. This service uses AI software and personnel who will review each exam to flag indiscretions that occur during the exam to determine instances of cheating. Things to consider: Open Note/Open Book will
NOT
be allowed. Students will be allowed to have a whiteboard, erasable marker, and a calculator for some of the exams
Basic Examination Rules:
Once the testing session begins, students may not take a break, go to the bathroom, or leave their computer.
The microphone must be on; be sure to test in a quiet area alone without interruptions (no music, TV, etc).
Cell phones must be turned off or out of the room. No smartwatches or other electronic devices are permitted.
Students may not consult notes in between exams. The testing area must be clear of all items except the allowed whiteboard, erasable marker, and a scientific calculator (phones not permitted as calculators).
Students must complete and submit an exam before opening the next exam.
Students must submit exams before the time limit for each exam. Each exam will have a different time limit. An exam start time begins once the student starts the exam. Students are advised to stay aware of the time remaining for each exam.
Use the Table of Contents to see the list of the questions and navigate quickly between questions.
Save each question upon answering before going to the next question
Students can use the Table of Contents at any time to review questions before submitting the exam.
Don’t close ProctorFree until all exams have been submitted.
Components of the ProctorFree monitoring system:
ProctorFree will record the student's computer screen during the exam. ProctorFree will only allow one (1) active monitor to be used. A second window, browser, or messaging system opened during the exam will be flagged for further review to determine if cheating has occurred.
ProctorFree will record the student's audio during the exam. Sounds will be captured and flagged for review if deemed conspicuous.
ProctorFree will use the student's webcam to record video during exams. ID verification will be used to set up your profile. Actions that could be flagged as suspicious include:
Walking away from the computer during the exam.
The student's face not being visible on the recording screen.
Frequently looking down, as if searching through a book or notes for answers.
Other browser windows or software open on computer.
Professors will provide ProctorFree with information regarding the use of calculators and whiteboards during exams.
Cheating would consist of:
Using Google to look up answers.
Using digital or printed PowerPoints during an exam.
Using digital, printed, or hand-written notes during an exam.
Using a phone, tablet, second laptop, or another digital device during an exam.
Messaging someone to discuss questions during an exam.
Verbally discussing questions with someone during an exam.
Having someone else take the exam for the student.
Walking away from the computer at any time during an exam.
Leaving an exam in between exams or leaving SAKAI in between exams.
Any other behaviors that compromise the integrity of the testing environment.
Instructions for taking exams and setting up a student account with ProctorFree will be provided when needed.
