perhaps we decide to split the class into 2 streams with 2 independent
exams, it's
We've conducted several exams already. Last year we first though about
grading mostly by take-home exercises, but the percentage of blind copy
+paste was unacceptable, and we were forced to perform lots of exams,
sometimes not on the best possible conditions.

I would be very interested in a summary of the responses you receive

For linear algebra, with a class size of about 20, I allow the
students to use calculators, or Sage on laptops (I'll probably move to
*requiring* Sage next time I teach the course). We have a campus-only
Sage server. I then sit in the back where I can watch their screens.
In other courses, I hav
The problem with using a SAGE server for testing. asside from students seeing
eachother's work on adjacent monitors, is that the students can share
worksheets withe eachother!
i use SAGE servers for graded work but only in class assignments done in groups
for a group grade.
It is even worse if
Dmitrii,
David's question is critical. I do some computer exercises in my
upper-level chemistry classes, but can only do test questions where
they do something on the computer in the smaller classes where I have
enough computers to sit every student in front of one. Typical
computer labs don't w
Will all these students take the exam in class simultaneously
in a large computer lab?
