Secure Testing Best Practices

Password Protection

Short Description: Set 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 Availability

Short Description: Make 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 Feedback

Short Description: Do 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.
