When instructors make the following changes, they will create effective exams that also diminish the likelihood that students will violate academic integrity principles.

When possible, replace infrequent high-stakes exams with more frequent lower-stakes quizzes that build on one another.
When possible, replace multiple choice questions with short answer or essay or project-based assessments.
For quizzes that are primarily intended to promote learning (i.e., formative assessment) rather than assess learning (i.e., summative assessment), allow students to take quizzes multiple times.
Remind students frequently of the importance of maintaining academic integrity. Feel free to reference or draw on language from our Remote Learning page: "Lehigh’s academic integrity standards remain the same whether you are learning online or in a face-to-face class. That means that you may not receive unauthorized assistance in taking quizzes, tests, or examinations, and that you may not submit the work of another as your own in any assignment. Review the Student Senate's Statement on Academic Integrity and Article III of Lehigh’s Code of Conduct. If you have any questions about Academic Integrity as it applies to our online course, ask."
