摘要
With online examinations prevailing, academic integrity has become a concern. This study is to explore perceptions of online tests among students. An anonymous online survey was conducted among 156 students enrolled in the health professional courses from the CUHK Faculty of Medicine in the academic year 2019-2020. The majority preferred traditional onsite examination (75%) over online format type (25%) because of a less technical requirement (86%), immediate support from invigilators for unanticipated situations (74%), and easiness of focusing (64%); however, some prefer online examinations due to convenience (66%). The pressure and anxiety towards the study do not have significant differences. The reasons for cheating include the desire to pass (42%), peer influence (42%), outstanding grades (38%), and ease of browsing other websites (31%). The application of the blackboard system, Respondus LockDown Browser, with Zoom invigilation minimises the chance of cheating.
