Exams on Inspera
The Semester 2 online Inspera exams will be one of three types: Fixed-time, Flexible-start or Open-24.
Fixed-time exams are short-duration exams, scheduled to be taken in a specific time slot. The date, start time and end time will be found on the exam schedule. All in-person exams will be fixed time as well as many exams on Inspera.
Flexible-start exams are online, short-duration Inspera exams that you can start at a time of your choosing within the 24-hour window specified on the exam schedule. Your exam will end after the specified exam duration has passed, or at the end of the 24-hour window if sooner. The exam duration includes the expected work time for the exam and any submission time allowance.
Open-24 hour exams are online using Inspera, and open for 24 hours. You will only be expected to work on the exam for the duration indicated on the schedule (e.g., two hours). The exam will close at the end of the 24-hour period, after which you will not be able to submit an attempt.
The majority of exams on Inspera will be Fixed-time exams. The exams that are either Flexible-start or Open-24 exams are listed below.
