Honorlock Overview

Date: Wed, Jan 8, 2025
Time: 02:00 PM - 03:30 PM

Seats available: 100

Online proctoring tools lock down some aspects of a student's computer and use advanced machine learning, face-detection technology, and other metrics to ensure test integrity. To prepare for the session we suggest you look through Honorlock's best practices for remote test taking information.

Topics covered in this 90 minute session include:

  • Is online proctoring right for my class? 
  • Setting up a Canvas quiz with Honorlock
  • Overview of Settings
  • Evaluating proctoring reports
  • Resolving accessibility and technical issues
