Just keep in mind that it will only catch students who cheat by copying each other's work (or copy from the same online resource), and that it should not be considered foolproof; it just shows you which assignments you need to look at more closely, and where the suspicious sections are. | |

Once I switched to closed book their grades went up on the same tests. I'll be randomizing my online tests for each student (x random questions from pool of y, given in a random order), and beyond that I'm not worried. | |

| Mar 6, 2020 at 14:28 | comment | added | Solar Mike | I would have one additional assessment via skype or equivalent and ask a couple of questions direct - you should be able to tell if they are waiting for someone else to help them, then use that grade as a factor for the other grades where they might have had help... | |
