WRITING ASSIGNMENT - UNIT 3
The word proctor (n.) as defined by the Cambridge English Dictionary is a “person whose job is to watch people taking an exam in order to check that they do not cheat” (Definition of “proctor”). Therefore, the act of proctoring will ensure no cheating is accomplished during an examination. This is important because it ensures students are awarded grades for their own merit. Not all courses at UoPeople require a proctored exam, however, prior to graduating from the UoPeople every student is required to take five proctored exams if they are completing an Associate’s Degree or 11 proctored exams if they are completing a Bachelor’s Degree (Student Handbook).

A student’s year has four fundamental parts: fall term, winter term, spring term, and summer vacation.
