Secure Testing Best Practices Follow these recommendations to ensure academic integrity in online tests in your Keyboarding in SAM course. Password ProtectionSet a password to be sure your students cannot access tests ahead of time. Students will not be able to begin the test until you share the password. Limit AvailabilityMake tests available for a short window of time. If tests are available for a long time, students have more opportunity to share answers. A short window of availability means students begin their tests at the same time and prioritize their own work. Limit FeedbackDo not allow any feedback on students' test performance until after the test is closed. Students that finish their tests early can use this feedback to assist those still taking the test.
