Open Book Exam Courses

[peace123]

There may be a misunderstanding regarding EC exams. All exams are proctored through Pearson Vue. Security includes finger printing, pictures, and direct monitoring. Many courses have mid-term or final exams that may be open book and non-proctored. Like many other online and B &M colleges, the exams are generally timed and the questions require mastery of the subject material.. ie -you can’t simply look up an answer in the text book. The questions typically involve new information and require the application of knowledge learned at that point in the course. Further these midterm and final exams are not weighted as the whole course grade.

Terry,

Thank you for clarifying this point. In my posting, I was speaking of the course exams, not ECE's. Indeed, the security for the ECE's is strong, thumb print, photo, etc...
