Dear Victoria University of Wellington,

 

I am writing to request information as to which course(s) at the
university have used, are using, or are planning to use the Inspera
platform for conducting tests / assessments / exams.  Specifically, the
following is requested:

 

(1) A list of all courses in academic year 2022 and all previous academic
years which have used Inspera for one or more of the assessment items. 
For each course, please provide:  course code, CRN, academic year and
trimester that the course was held, and an indication as to whether use of
Inspera was mandatory for students to complete one or more of the
assessment items ("required"), or whether students were able to complete
all assessment items without using Inspera ("optional").

 

(2) A list of all courses in Trimester 1 of academic year 2023 for which
Inspera is being used for one or more assessment items.  I am aware that
these courses are still in progress but as the decision on use of Inspera
ought to have been made prior to the start of each course it is my
understanding that you will be able to provide this information.  Please
provide the same information for each course as was requested in (1).

 

(3) A list of all courses in Trimesters 2 and 3 of academic year 2023 for
which Inspera will be used for one or more assessment items.  If there are
any courses where Inspera is being considered as an option please include
those courses along with an indication (for each of these courses) that a
decision is still pending.  Again, please provide the same information for
each course as was requested in (1) and (2).

 

If you consider that it is not practical to respond to (3) at this point
in time, I am prepared to accept an interim response containing the
information requested in (1) and (2) along with a commitment to provide
the information requested in (3) on or before a particular date.

 

My preference is for the data to be provided in the form of a .csv or
.xlsx data file if possible.

 

Yours faithfully,

Andrew Tipton
