Abstract

This study investigated the differences between non-proctored and proctored online exam scores. Exam scores of the same class from two consecutive semesters were compared. Exam averages were compared to assess if there were significant differences between the two sections, controlling for student GPA. Results support the necessity for proctored exams.
