Content

Assessing student learning can be done directly on Blackboard or using tools such as ExamSoft. Also, online proctoring offers students and test-takers the option to take a proctored exam from any location. The process ensures the identity of the test taker and the integrity of the test environment.

Additionally, plagiarism prevention software assists faculty by detecting unoriginal content in student papers and providing a report for review. SafeAssign can be used by any BCM faculty member via a Blackboard Learn course site.
