25 March 2020: Implementing remotely invigilated online exams at scale

Presenters: Kylie Day and Jennifer Lawrence (University of New England, Australia)

This session explored key lessons and successes of the University of New England's experience in implementing large scale remotely invigilated (proctored) online exams where students use their own computer to do an exam in their own space under supervised conditions. This can be used for both higher stakes exams in a live proctored mode and lower stakes testing using automatic monitoring. UNE now has more than 60% of examinable units offering the exams online, and 25% of all exam sittings are undertaken by students this way. This is expected to grow substantially this trimester. An extensive question and answer was held with a large audience over an extended 1.5 hour session.
