Someone from OIS will be at the exam in case some students choose to endure the weather. If students are unable to attend a make-up exam will be scheduled. Reminder: there is information regarding classroom OIS support in case of emergency on CC2 website under contacts. Action Items Post information on CC2 website regarding adverse weather policy. A decision was made was to do mapping at a course level rather than session level. A template will be designed to help map each course around our milestones, 96 common diseases and LCME hot topics. The template will provide a column to indicate at what level the topic has been addressed in the course (high, level, none) as well as a column to indicate that the topic will be assessed. The template will be sent to each course director in the next few days with a deadline of mid-January. We will review the results at the next CC2 meeting. Course Directors and faculty are responsible for proctoring their exams in their course. Faculty are advised to review The Policies and Guidelines of the School of Medicine, Article 6.07, the Notes and Procedures for the Examination Policy for Pre-Clinical Medical Students courses. In the current on-line testing program a student cannot access the exam until they confirm they have read the honor code. There are increasing concerns regarding policies on takehome exams due to recent allegations of cheating. A student who “witnesses” cheating is not required to take the allegation to the Honor Court. Next meeting: 1/25/11, 4:00pm, 133 MacNider Create a policy on proctoring and add to the CC2 website.
