CCBC Instructor's Information
Note: Faculty and students should read all of following policy information. If there are any questions, please contact the Testing Center.
-
The Testing Centers administer make-up tests and exams for Distance Learning classes. Due to space and staffing limitations, the Testing Centers cannot administer tests for an entire class, nor can they serve as a testing facility for an entire class when an instructor plans to miss a scheduled class session. Requests for the administration of re-tests or large numbers of make-up tests must be discussed with the Testing Center Administrator who will determine, based on the Center's schedule, if the Testing Center can accommodate the request.
-
-
Computers with Microsoft programs are available for use in testing. All computers have WebCT/Blackboard and Internet access.
-
-
Whenever possible, Instructors should coordinate their testing dates with Testing Center schedules. Instructors should inform students of Testing Center procedures and notify them of test date availability and deadlines. Unforeseen circumstances such as college closings, power, and computer outages and staff absences may require changes to Testing Center schedules.
-
-
Instructors must complete a CCBC Testing Center Proctored Testing Request Form and submit the completed form(s) with the test(s) and all necessary materials, including blue books, Scantron answer sheets, etc. Electronic delivery of a test, the request form, and course roster, if applicable, is preferred. Testing Centers will make copies of tests sent by e-mail. For tests submitted as hard copies, the instructor is responsible for supplying enough copies of the test based on the numbers of students expected to test. Faxing a test, except on an emergency basis, is not recommended since the faxed copy may not copy well and/or the whole test does not transmit.
-
-
Instructors who plan to use WebCT/Blackboard for testing are encouraged to submit a paper copy of a test that can be used in case of unexpected computer outages.
-
-
Instructors are responsible for delivering and picking up tests. The Testing Centers are not responsible for the security of exams once they leave the office. Delivery instructions should be noted on the Request Form.
-
-
Students are not allowed to bring tests to the Testing Centers or leave with tests without written consent from the instructor.
-
-
Tests are assumed to be closed book and closed notes unless otherwise specified on the Request Form. If instructions are not specific, students will not be allowed use of any aids while testing.
-
-
All papers, including scrap paper and worksheets, used by a student during a test will be returned with the test.
-
-
In accordance with CCBC’s academic honesty policy, suspicion of cheating will be documented and reported to the instructor, along with any available evidence. The instructor will make disciplinary decisions.
-
-
Students must contact the desired Testing Center to verify hours and, if necessary (at Catonsville and Essex) schedule an appointment. “Walk-in” students may be seated on a space-available basis, but should expect to wait until all scheduled appointments have been seated.
-
-
Students must present a valid picture ID (CCBC student ID, state ID card or Driver’s License) when arriving at the Testing Center.
