The reason why students cheat on tests or exams is because our systems values grades more than students value learning. -Neil deGrasse Tyson.

@@StudyTopiaTV I agree with José. I think a better way to measure comprehension on content material is a student orally presenting a teach back to the class, as recent studies have shown teaching others on the course material proves a more in-depth level of understanding.

I wildly dislike this software. I recently used it for an entire semester's worth of quizzes and exams, and several times the software would crash and incorrectly disengage on the computer, causing very serious security problems. If I weren't tech-savvy there is no way I would have corrected the problem. This program adjusts your operating system settings every time it is activated, and should it crash mid-exam, fails to reset the modified settings on the operating system. I have no idea if I ever fully fixed the issue, but it appears I did. I recall that it had disabled the file explorer on my computer as well as the taskbar as a function of explorer.exe and furthermore made me entirely incapable of opening any programs. It even disabled remoting into the PC, and restarts would only cause total lockouts. If it had forced me to reset my OS via the BIOS, I'd have lost thousands of dollars in software, files, etc. Horrible program and an invasion of privacy anyway. It will also sometimes disengage network firewalls, so make sure you're on a protected, trusted network or your PC is a valuable target until the exam is completed. It only stresses students out even more, especially me, because who knows if it's going to crash again and become a three-hour computer repair session again?

I'm really anxious when being recorded in general, so I took a math placement test I shifted around and talked to myself a lot, and to top it off I had to write on the side because I didn't have a big enough desk to write infront of the monitor. I'm so nervous I'll look like a cheater, I'm not but god knows what they'll think
