How do I enable Respondus Monitor for a D2L exam?
Answer
To enable Monitor, click on Require Respondus LockDown Browser for this exam
This will prompt you to choose which Proctoring option you would like to
- Don't require proctoring for this exam
- Require Respondus Monitor (automated proctoring) for this exam - Students are recorded during the exam. Suspicious events are flagged, and the instructor can view the video after the exam is submitted. Faculty have the option to select from the following options when using Respondus monitor:
- Webcam Only - Recordings will only include the student's face and environment
- Webcam + Screen - Recordings will include the student's face/environment and their screen during the exam
- Screen Only - Recordings will only include the student's screen during the exam
- Allow instructor live proctoring for this exam (via Zoom, Teams, etc) - the instructor watches students remotely during an online test. This feature requires the use of a video conference system such as Zoom or MS Teams. Students are not recorded, and the instructor is not alerted to suspicious activity.
Next select the items to be included in the Startup Sequence, which includes the steps a student must complete prior to the start of an exam. Clicking Preview will allow you to see what the step will look like as the student will see it. Notice each step must be fulfilled prior to taking the exam.
Next, select the Face Detection Options preferred for the exam. Both boxes are checked by default as the recommended setting.
