Dear MTH 140
Online Proctor:
Thank you for agreeing to proctor exams for one of my students this semester. Please find the Midterm and Final exams enclosed in labeled envelopes for the course, along with prepaid envelopes in which the exams can be returned to me. The students are aware of the due date for each exam, and will be responsible for setting up a time to meet with you and take each test.
When
it is time for you to take the exam, the proctor will open the appropriately
labeled exam envelope and administer the exam to you. The proctor will sign the exam in the area provided at the top of each exam. When you have completed the exam,
the proctor will put the exam
in the return envelope, seal the envelope, sign across the seal of the
envelope, and send the exam back to me by the due date. (It is
acceptable for either you or the proctor to mail the exam to me once the
envelope is sealed.)
Exams will be completed in hand-written format
and will be graded
on the completeness
of your work (process of doing the problem),
as well as your answer. In order to
receive credit, you must show your work for each problem. This means
that you will receive some credit for
a partially complete process (even if the answer is not correct), and you do
not get full credit for sloppy or incomplete work (even if the answer is correct).
All
work must be done in pencil. Papers done in ink will not be graded.
Graphing Calculators may be used on all
exams. However, work done
on the calculator (like graphing functions),
still needs to be shown in a neat organized manner on the exams. The calculator is just a tool, it does not replace the necessary work that needs to
be shown.
This is not a timed exam. Most people will be able to finish the exam
in two hours, but there is no need to quit working after any particular length
of time.
You may use notes for each exam.
I
am not limiting the number of pages of notes.
However, your notes must
follow the restrictions listed below.
1. The
notes used may not have sample problems.
2. The notes may contain formulas, vocabulary, processes (or
steps) of how to do a certain procedure…..but no sample problems.
3. You
may use the Trig Handout Sheet and other notes on Concept Rules and Formulas
found on the course website
Books may not be used.
The exam must be taken during one sitting.
The student may not start the exam and then come back at a
later time to finish the exam.
Once you are finished working, please return
the exam to your proctor.
Proctors:
Please use the enclosed envelope to return the test to me. Sign across the seal of the envelope,
indicating that the test was administered by you in accordance with the above
guidelines. Thank you for your help!
I ask that the “Midterm
and Final Exams” be mailed to me (US Mail), using the return envelopes, postmarked
by the due date.
“Midterm and Final Exams” will not be
accepted late.
Thanks again for
your help. If you have any questions,
please call me at (517)-796-8579.
