::: About Proctorio :::

Proctorio is a proctoring tool that is as easy to use as it is powerful. It ensures academic integrity by recording audio and/or video of the student while he or she takes an exam; actively locking down the test environment (disable downloads, clear cache); reporting student activity (such as copy/paste or visiting other websites); and detecting abnormal behavior.

The Proctorio extension runs on the Google Chrome browser, is free to download, and will update automatically. Once the extension is installed, instructors are able to turn on Proctorio for any quiz or exam they want proctored. To take a proctored exam, students must use Google Chrome to access the exam and have the Proctorio Chrome extension installed. When the exam is complete, the quiz video will be available within Canvas for review, highlighting only the behaviors designated by the instructor within the exam settings.
