Exam Tips

  • To avoid cheating, consider omitting that exam and replacing it with discussion requirements, additional written assignments, one-on-one oral/chat discussion with you, a group project, or another assessment alternative.  
     
  • Have your exam proctored on campus or on another college or high school campus.  Require that the proctor see a photo ID before the student takes the exam.  Remember, though, most proctored exam sites do not sit and watch the student, so students can easily cheat on these exams.
  • Make exams tough and allow students to use textbook.  Allow the exam to run only a certain amount of time and don't allow students to backtrack.
     
  • Set exams up in Blackboard so they are graded automatically, even if you are not having an online class.
