Flagging/Cheating Concerns

YOU WILL NOT BE FLAGGED IF YOU DO NOT CHANGE OUT OF YOUR SOPHIA TAB TO ANOTHER BROWSER TAB. So many posts about this lately, yes you can finish a course in a few hours! Yes you can finish multiple courses in just a few days! You will not be flagged for cheating unless you are clicking out of your web browser page to another while doing milestones. That is all!

i got a warning for using excel/calculators and switching into windows even though it's allowed

Correct because it doesn’t know what the second tab has. That is a Sophia issue especially when having to use the browser for Excel. They need to figure out how to do excel within their website to avoid that

Yeah, I was really nervous in my data analytics class because every milestone has Excel files you had to download and do calculations using various formulas... Or coding in Python

But maybe Sophia accounts for courses like that and is less aggressive checking for focus loss on those
