Alternative Proctoring Solutions

Faculty giving tests and quizzes on Brightspace can set up Respondus Monitor to work in conjunction with Lockdown Browser to provide a more secure testing environment for non-proctored exams. Respondus Monitor records the student test session via webcam and flags suspicious behavior. Faculty can then review the flagged videos or watch the recorded session in its entirety.

Respondus Monitor records the student test-taker via webcam but does not record mouse clicks or screen activity. If you are seeking a solution that captures the student test-taker’s screen, Microsoft Teams or Brightspace Collaborate may provide the non-proctored testing environment needed.

Faculty interested in using these tools should contact UTS or use the Self Service Help Desk. Requests should be made as early as possible, at least one week in advance.
