\fs32 \cf0 Instructors are reminded that multiple versions of examinations can be generated by scrambling the order of questions and/or answers.\'a0 Some scrambling software, such as Respondus, is free for 平特五不中 faculty and staff ({\field{\*\fldinst{HYPERLINK "http://www.mcgill.ca/cio/procurement/license"}}{\fldrslt \cf2 \ul \ulc2 www.mcgill.ca/cio/procurement/license}}).\'a0 Click on the \ul Software Licensing website\ulnone  link, enter the product name (Respondus) and follow the links to access.\'a0 Instructors are reminded that minimal changes to the order of a block of questions do not scramble questions adequately.\'a0 The Associate Dean (Student Affairs) of your Faculty can provide additional information and guidance.\

\fs32 \cf0 Please note that examination integrity is enhanced by random seating and a seating plan.\'a0 The 1990 Senate Regulations on Examination Security state that \'93A random seating chart shall be utilized by the instructor for every mid-term examination held in a classroom.\'94\'a0 Many classrooms have labelled seating ({\field{\*\fldinst{HYPERLINK "http://www.mcgill.ca/pia/plans/exam"}}{\fldrslt \cf2 \ul \ulc2 www.mcgill.ca/pia/plans/exam}}); this makes it easier to assign students to random seating. The plan can be posted 10-15 minutes before the examination room is opened to students. Once students are seated, the invigilators use copies of the plan to verify that students are in their assigned seats.\'a0
