However, these measures arenot enough to prevent e-cheating since the traditional password-based system is inadequate tosuccessfully authenticate students remotely. For example, a student can give his or her accountinformation to a person and let that person take the exam for him/her. One proposed solution tothe problem is to use biometrics. We believe that the recent developments of biometrics havemade it a viable technology to prevent e-cheating.

constant acceleration equations for solving kinematics problems. While studentsmay learn to solve problems more quickly through the application of constant accelerationequations, we feel that their understanding of motion—particularly the general case in whichacceleration may vary with time—does not match the richer learning experience offered bygraphical analysis. A graphical analysis approach allows students to visualize motion whileworking more directly with fundamental principles. Graphical analysis also takes greateradvantage of advances in laboratory technology, including real-time data collection using motiondetectors (an ideal tool for measuring, viewing and manipulating motion graphs for motion withconstant or time-varying acceleration
