Some Suggestions on Maintaining Academic Integrity while Administering Exams without Proctoring

October 9, 2020

Most items in the attached “Some Suggestions on Maintaining Academic Integrity while Administering Exams without Proctoring” were solicited, compiled, debated, edited, etc. by the members of the Provost’s Ad Hoc Committee. The ideas and language therein come from suggestions by faculty and staff colleagues as well as from Baruch’s Task Force for the Future and other campus sources, including Balancing Academic Integrity during Final Exams with Student Privacy, Access and Equity in Spring 2020, the report compiled last April by members of our Center for Teaching and Learning (CTL).

Please recognize that the ideas in “Some Suggestions…” will not work for every course and every instructor; in some cases, they may work well and in others not at all.

The report is by no means complete and additional ideas are welcome—we will create an online space for them soon, but meanwhile feel free to send them to me.

Meanwhile, a memo about the use of ProctorTrack, the proctoring software that CUNY will be using, will be circulated soon.
