Remote Testing Best Practices

  • Use the Chrome browser
  • Use for midterm or final exams
  • Communicate rules
  • Communicate penalties
  • Inform students to read the job aid, “Integrity Advocate Overview and Preparation for Students“. Then
    review the section to prepare for an IA quiz with students
  • Create a practice test and use the “demo” mode of IA to help familiarize students with IA, the quiz process, and any technical issues that may arise
  • Set the test availability
  • Set the test length to allow students to complete it without the need for a biological break
  • Use large question pools that well exceed the number of questions in the exam
  • Add one question per page
  • Randomize questions
  • Randomize choices in multiple-choice questions
  • Have students take the test at the same time
