If you use Canvas™, you can prevent cheating by using Respondus®
LockDown Browser® or Respondus Monitor®. Create a Canvas quiz
that requires Respondus and use it to link to OWLv2. Your students will continue to be monitored by Respondus while they complete their exam in OWLv2.
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.
Respondus
LockDown Browser prevents:
- access to any other application
- printing and screen capture functions
- copying and pasting
Respondus Monitor also turns on students' web cameras to ensure they do not
use prohibited notes or other resources in addition to preventing the actions listed
above.
Students should download Respondus LockDown Browser 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 OWLv2, 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.
