CON Undergraduate Testing: Difference between revisions

Line 72:

<p style="margin-bottom:15px;max-width:70em !important;">The University of Nebraska College of Nursing prepares students in a similar testing environment and style as the current licensure testing (NCLEX). Exams are computer based with no backward navigation enabled. This is a strategy for student success.</p>

<li>Unit and final exams are proctored and administered in a secure environment.</li>

<li>Unit and final exams will be given using the UNMC specified exam/evaluation software. Quizzes (e.g., iRAT, gRAT, med math) are exempt from this requirement.</li>

<li>Exams will be taken on either a student’s device, a UNMC College of Nursing issued device, or at a campus testing site. For students testing on their own device, students must download and register their testing device within the UNMC specified exam/evaluation software. If there are difficulties in downloading the software, students are expected to work with technical support from the company to resolve issues prior to taking exams.

<li>Students who are not able to take the exam as scheduled are expected to notify the course coordinator as soon as possible prior to the scheduled start time for the exam.</li>

<li>Exams start on time and students are expected to be present.

<li>Students who arrive more than 5 minutes late will need to work with the course faculty to either reschedule or complete the exam.</li>

<li>Students who begin the exam after the start time will need to complete the exam at the same time as the rest of the class who began on time, unless otherwise determined by the course faculty.</li>

</ol>

</li>

<li>If students experience an urgent issue (e.g., technical issues or illness) during the exam, they are required to notify the exam proctor immediately.</li>

<li>Students who are unable to complete the exam once started will be required to make-up/retake the exam and may be given an alternate format exam.</li>

<li>Students can leave the exam room during the exam only with proctor permission.</li>

<li>Students are required to upload their exam file upon completing the exam and prior to leaving the exam room. Exams not uploaded may receive a zero for that exam.</li>

<li>Incorrect exam responses are shared with students via the review option in the exam/evaluation software immediately following the exam.</li>

<li>If a passing score is not achieved, students will be required to meet with course faculty to review incorrect exam responses.</li>

<li>Students have the right to seek clarification about exam items and must contact faculty within 72 hours after the completion of the exam.</li>

</ol>

</li>

<li>Make-up exams will be scheduled at the discretion of the course coordinator and will follow the guidelines published in the course syllabus.</li>

<li>Students are only allowed items needed for testing at their computer. See Procedures for specific examples. Faculty reserve the right to inspect any items that are at the testing location with the student.</li>

</ol>
