Laptop Examination Agreement for the Faculty of Law

The Examination Agreement is designed to confirm that students agree to the terms of the laptop policy. The following are the components of the Examination Agreement:
  1. I elect to write one or more of my law examinations using a laptop with the approved Æ»¹ûÒùÔº software during the examination period. I recognize that this is a third-party application, and that neither Æ»¹ûÒùÔº nor the Faculty of Law is responsible for its proper functioning.
  2. I confirm that my personal laptop meets the minimum requirements (as stipulated in the Faculty of Law – Laptop Exam Student section of the WebCT course Law-Law-Student Affairs-Examinations) for the laptop exam pilot project. My laptop has access to the Æ»¹ûÒùÔº wireless network. Once I have completed this agreement, I will download and install the University-approved software on my laptop. I will follow the tutorial and test the software on my laptop within the stated deadlines.
  3. If my laptop fails during the exam (e.g., a computer crash), I agree to continue and finish the exam by handwriting it. I understand that I will not be granted additional time to resolve the computer problems during the exam. If the incomplete examination cannot be retrieved from my computer within two working days, the Associate Dean (Academic) will determine remedial options.
  4. I understand that, if necessary, ICS staff may be available to troubleshoot any difficulties encountered with the approved software (a third-party application). I will be asked to sign an IST Customer Services-Computer Repair Waiver acknowledging that ICS staff will not be held responsible for any theft, loss, or damage (to hardware or software) occurring during the diagnosis or repair of my laptop, or for any loss of data, regardless of when it was lost.
