Summary of "Pengarahan Pra-UTS Online Spring 2026"
Main ideas / lessons conveyed
- Purpose of the session: A briefing for the online pre-midterm exam (UTS/online midterm) Spring 2026 held via Zoom and the LMS.
- Exam officers & contacts: Students should know who the exam officer is and how to contact them if issues occur during the online exam window.
- Important schedule clarification:
- The online midterm (UTS) for Spring 2026 occurs May 16–20 (within the normal period).
- Any follow-up/makeup exam is offline at the exam center during June 16–20.
- The online midterm is not a “make-up” exam, so grade reduction does not apply to the online midterm.
- Scoring / weighting:
- Each midterm component weight is 30% (as stated).
- Further details referenced include Part A/B quizzes within the LMS module.
Detailed methodology / instructions
1) Where to find your exam schedule
Check your selected UTS schedule via:
- LMS / student website dashboard, then:
- Online EC list
- Online exam history
An example schedule format mentioned:
- Course ID (e.g., PHP 102), date, and time window (e.g., 13:00–15:00 WIB).
Also referenced:
- A WhatsApp group contains a shared link/sheet with all students’ schedules, including:
- session
- breakout room (BR)
- supervisor name
- present/absent status
2) Devices required (core rule)
Students must use two devices:
- Device 1 (exam working device): laptop/tablet/computer with webcam
- (Smartphone is possible if necessary, but laptop/tablet is recommended.)
- Device 2 (monitoring in Zoom): smartphone
Critical Zoom rule:
- Only the second device (smartphone) joins Zoom.
- Do not join Zoom from both devices.
Placement guidance (to ensure both student + screen are visible):
- Keep devices visible to the supervisor.
- Avoid placing the smartphone too far or too close.
- Ensure the smartphone camera captures the student and the exam screen (keep the phone positioned so the screen is not hidden).
3) Breakout rooms (BR) and entering the correct Zoom room
On Zoom entry:
- Select the correct Breakout Room (BR) (e.g., BR1, BR2, etc.).
- Sisters/brothers may be separated into different BRs.
- Verify your assigned BR using the schedule sheet.
Strong warning:
- Entering the wrong breakout room may lead to being marked absent.
4) Zoom / exam attendance timing
- Students must be present on Zoom maximum 10 minutes before the exam starts.
- The Zoom access link is shared via the WhatsApp group / session instructions.
5) Name format inside Zoom
Rename your Zoom profile to a format like:
nama_NorstudentID(example given:fulan_111)
6) Online exam mechanics in LMS (Part A and Part B)
In the LMS course (example given: N101):
- Go to Module 15 (UTS section)
- There are Part A and Part B
Steps referenced:
- Click quiz / assessment
- Set permissions/options:
- Allow camera access
- Allow while visiting the site
- Select share screen / entire screen when prompted
- Do not click Stop Sharing during the exam.
Part order rule:
- Recommended: Part A then Part B
- But B first then A is allowed (no problem stated).
7) Open-book / dictionary permissions (varies by course description)
Open-book rules are course-dependent:
- Some courses allow physical and/or digital dictionaries
- Some allow only physical
- Some are closed book
Dictionary/digital access rule:
- If open dictionary is permitted, digital dictionary use must match the course’s permissions.
Third-device open-book material:
- Allowed only with supervisor permission.
Tab switching restriction (especially for open-book):
- Frequent browser tab changes may be detected as a deficiency and could affect score.
- If notes are needed, use an allowed method (e.g., print or permitted additional device) rather than constant tab switching.
8) Communication with the supervisor (permission requests)
Permissions are typically requested via Zoom interaction methods such as:
- Speak up / unmute to request permission
- Chat / private chat if needed
The supervisor may request you to do specific actions, such as permission to:
- open additional resources
- unmute
- take a restroom break
- handle device issues
Practical instruction:
- Face the camera.
- Use mic/unmute or hand/pick options to communicate.
9) Breaks, restrooms, and leaving the screen
- No automatic extra time is granted for breaks.
- Restroom: must request permission from the supervisor.
- Break timing: a short rest (example: ~5 minutes) can be allowed.
- During breaks:
- You must remain in position (you cannot “leave the screen” or move away freely).
- Taking a break does not grant extra clock time; you remain under supervision.
10) Handling technical problems (disconnects / Zoom issues / device crashes)
- Zoom disconnect briefly: re-enter quickly if still within tolerance (guidance mentioned “under ~5 minutes”).
- Connection drops / device dies: report via Zoom when you can reconnect.
- Exam system crashes/errors: re-attempt required steps (permissions/camera access) when needed.
- Leaving Zoom and not returning promptly: may be marked absent if required attendance/communication is not followed.
- Major outages (wifi/power/offline): request a schedule change/reschedule, contacting the exam officer as needed.
11) Academic integrity / invalid scenarios
Students must not:
- work independently without Zoom monitoring
- bypass supervision
- perform actions outside the designated time without permission
If violations occur:
- The exam may be treated as invalid, resulting in failure and requiring makeup later.
12) Make-up exam consequences (June offline)
- Makeup exam is only offline, scheduled for June 16–20.
- Grade penalty: Makeup UTS scores are reduced by 15%.
- Exemption process:
- Students may apply for exemption from the 15% reduction via an exemption application portal
- Reasons/supporting documents may include examples such as illness or Umrah, and inability to participate normally.
13) Additional rules mentioned during Q&A
- Arabic keyboard requirement for courses requiring Arabic typing.
- Typing requirement: copy-paste may not work as expected. Students were instructed to type directly in the answer interface (copy/paste not recommended/possibly disabled).
- Work progress & submitting early: if finished early, leave Zoom only after the supervisor permission flow.
- Screenshots/photos of questions: implied as a workaround in some contexts, but must follow permitted procedures.
- Audio / voice-to-text: discussed as allowed in special cases, with permission.
- Online dictionaries / third devices: allowed only if the course type permits and the supervisor grants permission.
