Monitor records the entire testing session on the student's webcam and uses software to detect possible cheating behaviors (for example, looking at a phone or other computer, talking to another person in the room, having another person take the test).Īfter students have completed an exam, Monitor provides a visual rating of how likely it is that the student has displayed questionable behavior. It also helps to confirm students' identities. Monitor serves primarily as a deterrent to cheating. Monitor was used successfully in many courses during spring 2020, and it is used at many other colleges and universities. Adding Monitor to LockDown Browser provides an additional layer of proctoring for tests taken at a distance.

LockDown Browser is already integrated with Canvas at Indiana University and has been used for several years for proctoring in-person tests taken on a computer (for example, in testing centers). Using Monitor with LockDown Browser is an alternative to traditional proctoring. After the student submits the quiz, you can review details of the assessment, including the recorded videos. As an instructor, when you enable this feature for a quiz, your students will be required to use a webcam and microphone with LockDown Browser. It is best used as a deterrent to cheating. Respondus Monitor is an automated proctoring service for Respondus LockDown Browser that uses students' webcams to record students during online, non-proctored quizzes, and automatically detect behaviors that could indicate cheating. You need to allow Chromebook and/or iPad access via the advanced settings for each exam so that students can use these devices.
