To administer exams for your classes at the computer based testing lab please be sure to contact testing@uakron.edu for instructions to submit test requests, in the new RegisterBlast system. For existing faculty using RegisterBlast, you may use the RegisterBlast single sign on link.
- Course testing requests must be submitted at least 5 days (120 hours) before the start of test window. Faculty should not direct students to CBT for testing until receiving an approval email from CBT Staff. Students who arrive for tests that are not approved for administration in CBT will be referred to the faculty.
- If calculators are approved by faculty, they are provided by CBT. Personal devices are not permitted.
- Students are strongly encouraged to schedule appointments 24 hours in advance. Students who walk-in may have to wait to begin testing.
- Faculty are encouraged to contact staff at testing@uakron.edu (CBT) and cctesting@uakron.edu (CTC) for consultation on new RegisterBlast system placement and course testing.
- Scantron exam scanning is available at CBT. If you would like to make an appointment, please email testing@uakron.edu. Walk-in drop off is available too. For more information, visit Electronic Test Scoring page.
RegisterBlast
RegisterBlast is the preferred and recommended system for creating new computer based testing exams and is integrated with Brightspace. All test questions, items, and test set ups are managed and maintained by the instructors. Exam settings in RegisterBlast will be set up by instructor, with date, time, attempts, etc.
Specific IP address information will be shared with instructors after requests for testing in CBT are approved. Once faculty has submitted the test via RegisterBlast, the submission must be approved by CBT before the test is available to students.
CBT Proctoring Information for Students
Brightspace Assessments for Fully Online or Hybrid Courses: Instructors of fully online or hybrid courses may configure their exams to give students the option of testing at home using Respondus Monitor or in the SHN 152 proctored lab. Please contact CBT to request testing and staff will follow up with configuration instructions. Note that without special configuration, tests for online and hybrid courses cannot be taken in SHN 152, so please notify CBT as soon as possible at the beginning of each term for setup.
