I usually have face to face tests on campus or require them at the proctoring center, can I move my tests to online proctoring?

From Provost Hayes (March 18, 2020)

“Out of concern for spreading the virus, the UNC proctoring system has canceled face-to-face proctoring (see memo below).  UNC Online has notified students that the only proctoring option now open to them is online, as to avoid COVID-19 exposure. Since students must be informed of any testing fees at the time of enrollment, additional fees for online proctoring cannot be passed to the students.  Even if students were aware of online proctoring fees at enrollment, some of these students were using free resources such as community libraries that are now closed.  Increased costs even if known can cause a good deal of stress during these times. 

With that being said, we are acutely aware of the financial challenge this poses to many students and we are working diligently to come up with a solution. In addition, we strongly encourage faculty to adapt course assessments this week and use assessments that do not require online proctoring.

Please consider options such as using the LMS (e.g., Canvas or BlackBoard) for assessment, assigning alternatives such as papers, recorded presentations on the computer or smartphone, cumulative projects, or discussions.  Format online exams as open book with shorter time frames.  Please be creative.

In the rare case where an exam must be proctored due to accreditation, then the dean of the college or a college representative should email Greg Miller (millerg@ecu.edu) ASAP to discuss.”

Students who are approved for testing accommodations should have access to applicable accommodations when the course materials are online as well.  The Office for Disability Support Services (https://accessibility.ecu.edu/students/) can provide guidance if you have questions about providing accommodations for a student in your course.
