CompTIA quiz lockout features

Rick Butler
I'm not sure if it really matters because if a student wanted to look up answers, they could just open up another tab to anywhere on the net - and with AI-this and Skynet-that, well, they might actually have better luck with asking ChatGPT.

It might be better to just use the quizzes as a learning aid and go with, "well, if they elect to cheat, then they're not doing themselves any favors".

Linux+ v8 guide from Sybex: skips a whole objective

Rick Butler
Tess Sluijter said:
G'day everyone!

I bought the Sybex Wiley study guide for Linux+ v8 (XK0-006), because that's the book my students will also be using.

I was looking forward to the authors' take on a few of the new objectives, most importantly 4.5 on the responsible use of AI and LLM.

The book's preface promises that objective 4.5 is discussed in a chapter, plus the header page for that same chapter says it's in there. But no. Absolutely zero mention of AI, LLM and related topics. It's not in the index, it's not in the table of contents, not a word is breathed about the whole objective 4.5

I've submitted an erratum form to Sybex Wiley, who have "forwarded it to second line"... but it's gone dead silent since then.

I also noticed that this new version of the book no longer has Christine Bresnahan on the cover; it's now only mr Blum. I wonder why.

I just passed mine on 9/30 and was surprised that so many questions and answers were worded with only acronyms. Fortunately, I was taught to use the full names and abbreviations when I first learned. This has continued to be good advice.

CompTIA quiz lockout features

C
Question, in TestOut when a student was taking a quiz, they were not allowed to open another TestOut tab without kicking them out of the exam. I realized today that while students were taking a quiz, one student had 4 CompTIA tabs open. 1 to launch the exam, 1 to take the exam and the other 2 the student was scrolling through the curriculum, looking up answers.

Does CompTIA have the functionality to not allow them to open other CompTIA tabs while taking an exam?

Cloud+ renewal changes with v4?

Rae W
Apologies if this has been addressed here before and I just didn't see it when searching. So... as you can see below, CompTIA's site currently states that earning Cloud+ by passing exam V3 automatically renewed A+, Network+, and Linux+, and that V4 automatically renews nothing. Not only that, but it looks like V4 provides 15 CEUs toward Network+. This was the case with V2 (and V1, I'm presuming), with it fully renewing A+ and Linux+. V3 changed it to renew all three.

Has it really reverted to just 15 CEUs for Net+ and nothing else at all with Cloud+ V4? Passing the V4 beta actually renewed all three of my lower level certs.
