5. Important notice concerning examinations
- Advise your students to use Internet Explorer (IE) as the preferred browsers and FireFox if IE isn’t available, Google Chrome, Opera and Safari will impact on the assessment performance by showing the default template and ignoring the templates you may have selected, you may also find that some of the assessment functionality could be lost such as the countdown clock & report feature.
- Save As You Go (SAYG) should be switched to OFF and not be used. Extensive internal tests have shown that SAYG can be detrimental to a fault free assessment.
