If you use Canvas™, you can prevent cheating by using Honorlock®. Link your test from Canvas and enable Honorlock. Your students will continue to be monitored by Honorlock while they complete their exam in MindTap.
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.
Honorlock is a browser extension and works only
with Google® Chrome™. Students must use Google Chrome to
take their exam.
Students will be prompted to download the Honorlock extension when
they open the exam.
You must first create a password protected exam in MindTap, and add a link to your exam in Canvas. In order for students
to access the exam through the proctoring service, both the link and the module you
add it to must be published. However, students should not access the exam directly
through this link. To avoid confusion, consider creating a new module titled "Do not
access." Let your students know that you will be notified if they attempt to access
the exam through the "Do not access" module.
