Your Exam
You will access the exam through your Moodle course. When you start your proctored exam, you will be prompted to perform certain tasks based on the settings your instructor has selected for the exam. These may include showing your photo ID, adjusting your webcam, or scanning your room with your webcam.
Your exam attempt will be recorded and reviewed by your instructor professor later for academic integrity. During the exam, no one will be watching you take the test. Be sure to follow all exam guidelines provided by your instructor and the Proctorio prompts to ensure your exam attempt is acceptable.
Note for Mac Users
Once you have enabled the Proctorio extension, you will need to go into the settings on your pop-up blocker and change it to allow for all sites.
You will also need to put your other devices in airplane mode or disable the sync between devices, so you don't have pop-up notifications while you take the test.
