Proctoring for Exams | Essay based for everything else

[ashkir]

No there are more than 3 exams. And Please stop spreading inaccurate info and cause panic to new members. I’m currently on my last course of 
BABA and there are more than 3 exams in that program.

This is new as of the move to Brightspace. Most/all exams aren't going to be available as of the next term. If ashkir says there are 3 or fewer exams after the Brightspace move, I tend to believe that. Students have been "warned" for months that there would be no exams after the move to Brightspace.

Exactly what Rachel said. The Strut Learning is going away and UMPI is using Brightspace. As part of this move, the entire BABA and other degrees are moving to paper-based and they're getting rid of all exams. There was documentation from a while ago that showed how to do exams on Brightspace. I'm expecting UMPI YourPace will have very minimal interactions with exams hereonout.

So accurate! I don't like how intrusive it is, but don't mind being proctored. Which is why I took most of mine in an exam center. lol

You all kept asking. It's finally here. UMPI is now adding proctoring to all exam-based courses. Just a heads up.

Fake news! Where did you get this from

I believe at this time there are less than 3 exam courses still available. They're very minimal.

No there are more than 3 exams. And Please stop spreading inaccurate info and cause panic to new members. I’m currently on my last course of

I am one of the first alums on this forum, along with ss20ts. Our stories helped UMPI grow tremendously etc. This shouldn't be a fear or panic. If someone panics over a proctor, it usually tells me they're trying to cheat to begin with.

As of Brightspace UMPI is getting rid of most exams, and the goal is to move them to essay based submissions.

Oh wow, seriously? Where did they announce proctored exams? Was kind of hoping they wouldn't add proctoring. I'm already a nervous test taker, don't need some random proctor hounding me on my set up and being all nit-picky as read in WGU's reddit thread about nightmarish proctors and exams.

You'll be fine. Very likely everything is going to be an essay from hereonout.
