One stop solution to manage and access exam seating assignments of all your Berkeley courses, for course staff and students.
Check out our presentation slidedeck for Berkeley Teaching & Learning Conference 2024.
The app allows you to manage all your course exams. As course staff, you will be able to create, edit and delete exams, rooms/seats and student rosters, manage seating assignment, and email students about their assignments. As a student, you will be able to see your seating assignments.
The app is behind Canvas (bCourses) authentication, so only Berkeley affiliates can access the app. Only individuals that are enrolled in a certain course can access the app for that course - the type of enrollment (student, staff, etc.) fetched from Canvas determines the level of access.
- Supports multiple exams for the same course.
- Supports multiple room and multiple sessions for the same exam.
- Automates seat assignment and room allocation, reducing the workload on staff and minimizing human errors.
- Ensures fair seating arrangements for all students taking the exam, while taking into account student seating and room preferences (e.g. lefty chair, small room, DSP accommodation etc).
- Securely stores sensitive student and exam data, abiding by FERPA and other privacy laws, allowing only authorized staff to access the data.
- Allows exam seating email notification and seating chart projection during the exam.
- Allows staff to easily identify cheaters during exams by seating location.
