Today, I was testing the Respondus Lockdown browser for the central eLearning guys and girls and as comments were going back and forth on different issues, something interesting came up students can still cheat if the are at home by calling a friend, using another computer (just think about the number of computers in the house today) or using a textbook. Thinking about this for a moment, I wondered ok the call is a bit of a problem, but by the time the two heads decide on the one question, enough of the exam time has gone by that it’s not worth it. The other computer? The student still has to search. But what about texts? Well, they are almost the same, but to be of any use, the student must know where the information would be found for any given question. So if they don’t know where it is, again they are wasting their time. I remember using open book or “cheat sheet” quizzes and exams when I was teaching and I always found that students did much better – but that they rarely used their aid why? I think in trying to know where everything is in the book, or writing out all the answers on the sheet as small as possible, the students have been tricked into studying (ah, hidden curriculum strikes again). ![]() So in the end it’s not much of a threat and if I was an instructor thinking about using LDB or something similar – there are likely as many secure browsers out there as one would care to – I would assure them that it is a useful tool. To ensure the security, be sure that the questions that are asked are ones that are not really “Googleable”. In my day, most text books were available illegitimately online. Via that means, or via some pretty crappy note taking, you can create a much smaller search domain for the context of cheating on a test. If you’ve got a nice enough cel phone you could even use it to access the data. Keep in mind I’m a pretty terrible cynic when it come to using eLearning tools like this, that do nothing but transform pre-existing curriculum into digital form. But I also despised every test I ever had to take in WebCT. I imagine things have improved since then. Considering that we are from the same time as it where, I would tend to agree with you. But that there generally is a higher level of computer literacy out there in the student population, there is isn’t really the general ability to search worth a damn. I’m stereotyping, but based on the writing that is coming into the university and the very “information appliance” based nature of computing these days, those sources are generally safe. I would also assume that not all texts are online anyway (though that is changing with various “homework” applications in the social networking sites. I also agree with you that much of what still passes for elearning is just repackaging. It is very difficult to convince instructors to invest any time or effort into reworking course materials and creating new content. This is certainly not helped at all by the nature of the academic review process for promotions that (at least at large universities) doesn’t value the effort invested into teaching duties, only the results from dodgey metrics. Creating an exam that matches the only environment is also something that requires effort, so as likely as not, things are still much the same – depending on your instructor. Lockdown browser is a joke, I am a college student and every proffessor I have ever had has never required it, until this paranoid proffessor that makes us use it. Our University uses several different versions of lockdown browser and well long story short, it works for some, others cant figure it out, and some have just basically dropped, and this isn’t an online class, its your normal class room college business class.
