Enable Honorlock Exam Proctoring for Blackboard Ultra-Integrated CNOWv2

If you use Blackboard Ultra, you can prevent cheating by using Honorlock®. Create a Blackboard Ultra test that requires Honorlock and use it to link to CNOWv2. Your students are monitored by Honorlock while they complete their exam in CNOWv2.

Note While Cengage supports our learning platform integrations with several Learning Management Systems, proctoring solutions are third party services that we do not directly support. The LMS and proctoring solution versions we have tested might not be the same versions you use. For this reason, your process and results might vary and Cengage cannot guarantee support for any third party proctoring service.

This procedure is for Blackboard® courses with the Ultra Course View.

Honorlock is a browser extension and works only with Google® Chrome™. Students must use Google Chrome to take their exam.

You must first create a password protected exam in CNOWv2, and add a link to your exam in Blackboard.

  1. In your Blackboard course, locate your CNOWv2 exam link, right click, and copy the link address.

    This is the link you will add to your Blackboard test.

  2. Add Honorlock to your Course Content page.
    1. Click Add > Content Market.
    2. Find the Honorlock Exam List tile and click Add.
  3. Click Honorlock Exam List.
  4. Click menu > Register Third Party Assessment.
  5. Enter the necessary information under Admin Settings.
    1. Under Assessment Platform, click + Use Another Platform and locate the Cengage tool.
    2. Paste the link to your CNOWv2 exam in Direct URL.
    3. Under Exam Password, enter the same password you set for your exam in CNOWv2.
  6. Click Create.
  7. On your Course Content page, set Honorlock Exam List to be visible to students.

Students will access the exam by clicking Honorlock Exam List on their Course Content page.
