A Proctor refers to a person who supervises or invigilates candidates taking an exam. The proctor’s primary responsibility is to ensure that candidates do not cheat in exams. Learning spiral offers exam proctoring to Universities, Institutions, Schools, and Corporates. Exam proctoring is critical right now if we want to ensure that students do not cheat or use unfair means during an online exam. Students cannot cheat in an online exam because of the online examination technology and online proctoring.
How Does Exam Proctoring work?
- Our online examination system, UCanAssess, supports a range of online invigilation modalities. These include capturing photos, screen sharing, recording the candidate’s video/audio, restricting the candidate’s browser movements, and 360 degrees proctoring. After then, AI-assisted invigilation is applied to all of these digital inputs. An AI algorithm aids in the detection of impersonation and the use of prohibited objects (such as cell phones and earbuds).
- Proctoring application monitors candidates’ computer’s webcam for video and audio.
- AI-Powered Remote Proctoring: Since online proctoring generates a large quantity of image/audio/video streams the same can also be analysed automatically using AI-based algorithms. Our Online Examination system UCanAssess allows for a variety of methods for online invigilation. These include real-time capturing of candidate photos, screenshots, locking of the browser movements and also capturing of video/audio of the candidate.
- Recorded Proctoring: In this method, no proctor is monitoring the feed in real-time. But, the audio-video and screen share feeds of the test candidates are recorded during the test. A representative plays back and checks these recordings post the exam is completed.
