<p align="center"><b>Display in a "secure" window</b></p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The "secure" window tries to provide a little more security for quizzes
|
|
(making copying and cheating more difficult) by restricting some of the things
|
|
that students can do with their browsers.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>What happens is that:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Javascript is made a requirement.</li>
|
|
<li>The quiz appears in a new fullscreen window.</li>
|
|
<li>Some mouse actions on the text are prevented.</li>
|
|
<li>Some keyboard commands are prevented.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>NOTE: <b>This security is NOT watertight</b>. Do NOT rely on these protections
|
|
as your sole strategy. It is impossible to implement complete protection
|
|
of quizzes in a web environment so please do not rely on this option if
|
|
you are really worried about students cheating. Other strategies you can
|
|
try are to create really large databases of questions from which you
|
|
randomly choose questions, or even better, rethink your overall assessment
|
|
to put more value on constructive forms of activity such as forum discussions,
|
|
glossary building, wiki writing, workshops, assignments etc.</p>
