(((Rothschild)))
Thats insane
what is this for
idk, a lot of these are floating around
they're funny
My school is so laid back
some colleges take this shit way too seriously
its the opposite of this
most of my exams are multi day
These are from University of North Texas specifically
I would just tell them to fuck themselves at that point
I've got a way lower threshold
requiring video would be where I say no, fuck you
same
Its an invasion of privacy
fuck you I am not doing a webcam, and no you can't have root access to my pc
It makes it worse that these companies like SafeAssign and SecureQuote, and apparently McGraw hill
just design better tests
have access to the live feeds of students
and are monitoring htem
Like, my university specifically told profs they cannot do this shit
at least the math and physics faculties did
>Respondus™️ monitor
imagine
You know that feeling on a test, where you look up or look around the room
and you think to yourself "I hope no one thought I was trying to cheat"
I do that in exam halls
I literally sit there for 10 minutes thinking
blindly looking around
a lot of people do it, it's really common
that thought still pops up I'm sure though, from time to time
when you're doing something innocuous
God, what a terrible feeling, to have to be worried 24/7 about a computer false flagging you
and failing you
There are if you do not have these webcam requirements bopit
these profs are trying to enforce closed book by the most draconian overreach possible
All my exams are just open book, and exams as a whole are worth less then usual
thats the proper solution
My only bad exam is my stats exam that is 2 hours long instead of an full day
there are tiers though
Zoom/virtual lectures >>>>>> the shitty anytime assignment ones
Video recording lectures with zoom/msteams tutorials >> actual real time lectures though
