Thanks for the great feedback.
We do set up individual exam accounts. so students can't access files in their Documents folder.
And we have AB-Tutor, so I can see what is happening on each student's screen whilst sitting at the
'teacher computer'. So I think we can manage the integrity of the exam.
Structorizer takes a while to load from the website, at least in EQ schools, so I might test the
process in a non-exam setting with the class to see if there are equity issues, eg one student gets
structorizer up in a few minutes whilst another student's computer might take 15 minutes.
More replies are welcome, the more prepared I am, the less that can go wrong.
Cheers
Rex

Hi Rex,
We've been doing our IT exams online for a while now and simply set up
the exam as a form in Word, which lets you have drop down boxes for
multiple choice questions, etc.
We experimented with a few ideas (and still are) and have found that it
works best if you have a separate exam account login for each child. At
the end of the exam copy these to a write only location that students
can't access so you have a copy of them. Some people like to lock the
exam accounts after the exam. I like to have control of the exam
accounts because there are usually students who have to do the exam at
different times - I can put exams in the accounts and take them out as
needed.
If you give them Internet access during an exam you have to be extremely
vigilant in your supervision. It can be done but it's difficult to
ensure the integrity of the exam.
Cheers,
Kym

Subject: [qsiteict] IPT Exams done in Word, and with Structorizer
With the exception of the end-sem exam last year, all of my "written"
IPT exams have been done with
pen/pencil and paper, and with NS Diagrams and CSDs hand-drawn.
What I am thinking about doing this term is having the students do the
written exam (on programming)
in a computer room, using Word, and using the on-line version of
Structorizer to do their
NS-Diagrams, or at least the more complex ones.
The students will be using separate exam accounts and not their own
school accounts, and will need
Internet access to use Structorizer.
Has anyone does this before? Can anyone see any problems that might
arise?
Cheers
Rex
