To minimize stress on students and instructors, Mines is recommending instructors consider
implementing alternate assessment options instead of summative assessments as much as
possible for the remainder of the semester. However, we understand that there may be
circumstances where high-stakes exams may still be necessary. To support instructors who require
additional security for their online exams, Mines has purchased a limited number of licenses for a
test proctoring solution called Proctorio. Instructors can request Proctorio be included in their
Canvas course by submitting a Mines Help Center request. Please submit requests as soon as
possible prior to an exam to allow time for instructor training and a practice session for students.

However, there are several drawbacks to proctored exams, including the following: They often add stress for students They require a lot of planning and setup for both the instructor and the student Not all students have the technology necessary (e.g., webcams), and proctoring solutions can lead to false positives that must be reviewed by the instructor after the exam

Although it would be ideal if we could simply give our exams during our scheduled class session with the same amount of allotted time, current circumstances make it difficult to do this. Students may not be able to join synchronously, they may not have the technology (e.g., webcam) to participate fully, and they may feel additional stress when taking exams in a new online environment.
Below are general guidelines to consider when deciding about timing and access--use your best
judgment for your course content and learning outcomes.
If your primary concern about giving students more time or a wider window to access
exams has to do with cheating, consider implementing some options in the section above
Exams and quizzes delivered remotely should not be longer or have more questions than
they would if students completed them in person
Consider giving your students more time to complete the exam or quiz than you might if
they were taking it in person, to account for added stress or navigating a new system
If you choose to administer your quizzes/exams through Canvas, consider creating a
"practice" exam that students can use to make sure they understand and can navigate the
testing environment before starting the real exam
Refer to the accessibility document (in the section above) for timing and access guidelines
for students with accommodations
