Using Proctorio in TalTech
TalTech Moodle is interfaced with Proctorio, which makes it very easy to add all the functionality of the service to an existing Moodle test.
It is not necessary to order this service from the university in order to take the exam with the help of Proctorio (the university has annual licenses, e.g. there are licenses for the simultaneous exam for 80 students, they do not have to be purchased separately)
The current agreement between TalTech and Proctorio is of the Enterprise type. This means that we can buy annual licenses for students (from €15 per student), which can be used to conduct an unlimited number of exams using Proctorio. There is a separate agreement with Proctorio for taking the entrance tests, so that we can also use the pay-as-you-go model and buy one-time exam licenses (€5 per one exam attempt). This agreement was reached on the assumption that not all those who want to start studying at the university may still pass the entrance test, and it is not expedient for the university to pay the price of an annual license for them.
During the test period, financing the cost of the examination is the responsibility of the curricula/program managers.
Prerequisites for using Proctorio are Google Chrome on your computer and the installation of the Proctorio plug-in. Otherwise, both the student and the educator will see the following warning:
