Dear
I have migrated a dragon user profile for students at this university
in the past. We have a higher specification laptop which has been bought for
this purpose. Before the exam we make an arrangement with the student to bring
along their saved profile import it on to the University laptop and test it
using the students own microphone or one of ours if they prefer to make sure
everything is as satisfactory as possible to all parties.

Exams
Good Evening and a Happy
New Year,
I would be interested to
hear from other HEIs how you have supported students in exams who need to use
speech recognition ie: Dragon Naturally Speaking. Do you:
· Allow the student
to use their own Lap Top computer which has their own Dragon license and is
working well with the student – however how do you screen the computer?
· Or provide them
with a “clean” computer which they will need time to train the software up to
an acceptable level for sitting an exam – attending training sessions with them
so no files find themselves onto the computer etc
Any help will be
appreciated , Thank you
Kind regards and best
wishes
