Faculty

Our institution and faculty rightfully value academic integrity, understanding the importance of fairness, and the need to provide students with the academic credentials they have earned.

Nothing can prevent cheating, whether assessing student performance in an online or in-person classroom. There are, however, several ways to deter cheating and encourage academic integrity: Values Reinforcement, Exam Proctoring, Exam Construction, and Exam Alternatives.


SETTING UP ONLINE PROCTORING

Respondus Monitor and Proctorio are the solutions for online proctoring at 91²Ö¿â and are automated proctoring technologies that allow students with a webcam and an internet connection to complete exams and quizzes while on camera; the services do not use live proctors but instead uses an automated algorithm to report on any exam session irregularities, which can be reviewed and interpreted by the class instructor.

Getting Started with Respondus Monitor

The Respondus LockDown Browser is a custom browser that locks down the testing environment.  When students use Respondus LockDown Browser, they cannot print, copy, go to another URL, or access other applications on the computer.  When an assessment is started, students' browser screen is locked into it until they click submit for grading. Respondus Monitor builds upon Lockdown Browser by adding an AI-based proctoring solution which records the student's testing session.
