ProctorU 

ProctorU is a service for proctoring exams that are submitted through Canvas or other online platforms.The service is used at UC Santa Cruz only in a limited number of online course offerings. On the day of the exam, each student is greeted via webcam by a live proctor, who reviews the student's work station, checks the student's identification, takes partial control of the student's computer, and signs the student into the exam in Canvas. The rest of the exam is monitored and recorded (webcam, computer screen, audio) by a computer program that automatically flags potential cheating behavior. The instructor will be able to review any recordings that are flagged. Instructors who teach online courses and are considering using online proctoring are encouraged to consult with the Teaching and Learning Center to learn more about using ProctorU and to discuss alternative approaches to proctored exams.
