During the test

For the student taking an Proctorio-monitored exam is almost like taking any other Moodle test. As soon as the student starts taking the test in Moodle he or she will be notified, that the test is being monitored.

In addition, a very detailed overview is provided of what is being monitored or controlled during the test. This text varies depending on what the educator has chosen in the settings.

After that, a system diagnostics test is performed to determine whether the computer is equipped with required additional devices and test the internet connection realiability.

Before starting the test, students are reminded of typical concerns that may interfere or interrupt taking the test.

After that, the identification of the student begins. When our automated ID Verification setting is enabled by the exam administrator, the test-takers webcam captures an image of the test-taker’s identification card which is then available for review by only the exam administrator within the Proctorio Gradebook.

A green rectangle is displayed on the screen, inside of which the ID-card should be placed for automatic saving. This step of the process does not always work automatically. In reality, this function works correctly in a few cases out of ten. If not working correctly, the ID-card identification should be started manually.

The system does not actually make any advanced triangulation between the face and the document image. This creates the possibility of showing any other card instead of ID-card, Alexela's customer card, for example. See After taking the test page for more detailed information.
