CIS 1100 exams are governed by rules designed to prevent distraction to other exam takers. We ask that you follow these rules not only to maintain the integrity of the exam, but also out of respect for your fellow students.
CIS 1100 exams for the Summer 2024 semester will be taken on Gradescope. Students must take the exam alone, although the exams will be open-note. Students are given a window to complete an exam which, upon starting, students will have just over 2 hours to complete. Exams are meant to take 110 minutes, and we provision 20 minutes as a buffer for potential technical issues. On the day of the exam, we will switch Ed Discussion to private posts only. TAs will be heavily active monitoring for exam questions. Once you have completed the exam, you may not speak about the exam to other students or post on Ed Discussion publicly about it after the exam window has concluded. Doing so directly violates our academic integrity policy and will result in a failure for the exam.
We are offering exams within a 4 hour window which should work well for most students during the Summer 2024 semester.
If you believe that your circumstances warrant a makeup for the exam, you may post privately to Ed Discussion in the week prior to the exam date and the head staff will reach out to discuss a potential makeup date. These requests must be received by the Friday before the exam. If you ask for a makeup after the deadline, we will not be able to grant one.
