Faculty Instructions for Enabling Proctorio

There are things you need to do to “tell” Proctorio and Testing Services what resources (if any) your students should have access to for their proctored exam:

Let the folks at testing services know whether you allow resources by including information in the name/title of your proctored exam in Canvas. Include the word proctored in your assignment/exam/quiz and include an R or NR designation.

• R = resources – this means your students will be allowed open resources (this includes books, notes, etc.)
• NR = no resources – this means your students will only be allowed scratch paper, pen/pencil, and a basic calculator

For example:

Proctored Exam 3 (R) – Students will be allowed all resources.

Proctored Exam 3 (NR) – Students will not be allowed outside resources.

 

*Note* Resource allocation for Proctorio is handled through settings in Proctorio and are not related to the R or NR identification for physical test centers. 

For most courses – you won’t need to share any information with us.  We have access to a tool that allows us to retrieve information about your proctored event directly out of Canvas.

Math faculty – please continue using the Faculty Request for Proctored Exam Form for your paper/pencil proctored exams.

Great!  The more pedagogically sound the proctored event can be — the better.  Nothing is worse for students or testing staff than a proctored event that isn’t helpful to the students’ academic progress.  Please feel free to think broadly about how to use your students’ time most wisely.

If you’re ready to try something new, first, please work directly with your department chair.  Then, check out resources offered through the Center for Academic Innovation, including instructional design.
