Enable Proctorio Exam Proctoring for Blackboard-Integrated MindTap

If you use Blackboard, you can prevent cheating by using Proctorio. Create a Blackboard test that requires Proctorio and use it to link to MindTap. Your students will continue to be monitored by Proctorio while they complete their exam in MindTap.

How-ToInstructor HelpMindTap

This procedure is for Blackboard courses with the Original Course View.

Proctorio is a browser extension and works only with Google Chrome.

Students should download the Proctorio extension ahead of time, or they will be prompted to do so when they open their assignment.

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

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

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

  2. Navigate to a content area in your Blackboard course.

  3. Select your test and click Submit.

  4. On the Test Options page, scroll down to Proctorio Settings and select Remote Proctoring.

  5. Set your Proctorio settings.

  6. Click Submit.

Open your Blackboard test in student view to test the experience and make sure you can access your MindTap exam.

Publish your Blackboard test to make it available to students.
