At TenderlyTaught we believe exams conducted quarterly or half-yearly put a lot of pressure on students. The students always dread and fear this kind of exam schedule because it makes the exam experience burdensome. Therefore, when it comes to our internal exams, instead of conducting quarterly exams we conduct exams bi-weekly. We want students to learn things little by little and give small exams every other week for each subject. This exam system is not only stress-free but also helps students to understand the relationship between cause and effect. In other words, they begin to see more closely how well they are doing in their class and what they should do to improve. Whether it be teaching or exams one of our goals is to make student’s life easy.

This is how we conduct online exams
Our exams are conducted with the help of an LMS (Learning Management System) The LMS has built-in exam functionalities. The students only have to log into their account via LMS and they will be provided questions for the exam. Our online exam document may include multiple choice, match the following, fill in the black, short answers, essay, etc.
Clear Communicate and Technical Support Before Exams
Before exams, we provide students with clear instructions about the exam format, duration, allowed materials, and technical requirements. We offer a practice test to familiarize students with the platform to reduce anxiety and gather feedback from the practice test to address any issues before the actual exam. We also inform students about how to get help from one of our staff or FAQ Documents if they encounter technical issues during the online exam. Moreover, 1 hour before the exams start reminders about the exam are sent to the students and parents.
The following things are practised to ensure a fair, secure, and smooth examination experience for both students and instructors.
- Every student receives a different set of questions in the exam.
-
Exams are conducted at a certain time for all the students and are time limit for exams.
- We use online proctoring services to monitor students via webcam and screen sharing to prevent cheating.
- Once the students answer a question and submit the answer they are not be able to go back and change the answer.
- We implement browser lockdown tools to restrict students from accessing other websites or applications during the exam.
