FAQs

Q: Is a webcam-free nursing exam as trustworthy as a webcam one? It's lower-confidence and flagged as such in the report — appropriate for lower-stakes formative quizzes, not high-stakes licensure prep exams.

Q: Why would a nursing student lack a webcam? Hospital or clinic terminals used during clinical rotations often don't have cameras enabled for privacy/compliance reasons.

Q: Can faculty still see a violation report? Yes — screen activity, tab switches, and timing anomalies are all logged and scored.

Q: Does this work for skills checklists, not just written exams? This mode is built for written/quiz-style assessments; hands-on skills checks need in-person or video-based evaluation instead.

Q: What's the setup for an instructor? Paste the exam link, toggle camera-optional mode, and share the session link with students — done in minutes.
