Privacy Issues for Proctoring and the 4th Amendment
Presenter
Erasmus Addae
Minutes
The Ohio district court ruled in favor of the student concerning privacy and room scanning during remote exam proctoring. The case as it stands now only pertains to public institutions in Ohio. Erasmus met with Dr. Wade Bradfute and Ruth Reinhart and have forwarded ACC’s proctoring processes to legal counsel for recommendations. Early notice can be put in the course notes or syllabus to obtain student consent for room scanning during exam proctoring. Also, the best practices, handbook and QM experience subcommittees should be concluded.

Presenter
Richard Espinosa
Minutes
Richard presented student issues regarding test proctoring. The committee passed a resolution as follows: The Distance Education Committee recommends that students experiencing technical emergencies, in need of a quiet and secure environment, and/or situational test anxiety should be allowed to use a testing center.
In addition, the Distance Education committee recommends that the testing centers and computer centers have additional operating hours to accommodate students that may be working during the day. Suggestion would be 8-8pm Monday-Thursday, 8-5pm Friday, and 12-6pm on Saturday and Sunday.
These recommendations are in line with the colleges desire to provide caring, compassion, equity and inclusion into the testing environment
The resolution was sent to the provost for approval. Erasmus will work with the testing center to streamline the process by the spring semester.
