I understand how to set up my workspace correctly during HonorLock assessments, as explained below. How To: Show Your Workspace During Honorlock Assessments     What do we mean by the workspace? The area in front of you between yourself and your computer. Your hands, tabletop, and your sitting area. External materials that your professor will be allowing you to use on the exam. Include items such as paper, writing tools, whiteboards, calculators, or notes if they are allowed. Do This: Provide 3 to 4 feet between you and your computer’s webcam to enable a larger view space. Put your workspace and computer on the same flat surface. Try out different setups ahead of time to ensure you are comfortable with your seating and the placement of your workspace. Before starting your exam, check your webcam feed to keep track of how well your workspace is displayed. All work done in the workspace should be fully visible in your webcam’s feed during the test (Examples: Crunching numbers on the calculator, writing out formulas, or looking over notes if allowed during the exam).    Don’t place any item to the side or out of the view of the webcam and your instructor at any time!    Room scans Must clearly show your workspace, desk or tabletop, and general surrounding area. Your professor needs a good picture of this entire area and all items within your reach. Stand up and put some distance between you and the workspace. Hold the camera still on your workspace for at least 10 seconds, then continue your room scan of the entire area. Always move your camera slowly around your room. Blurry room scans are not acceptable!    If you cannot meet these requirements at home, please visit CSU Online Test Proctoring Resources to identify on-campus resources available to you!    How can you show your workspace? Laptop computers will often have built-in webcams that are not movable, and sometimes auxiliary webcams may be difficult to adjust as well. This situation can be problematic when you need to make adjustments to show both your face and your workspace. The solution to this is to put some distance between yourself and the webcam.   As seen in the above picture, an ideal distance would be 3 to 4 feet between you and your computer’s webcam. This distance will help ensure that your webcam has a broader view of yourself and your workspace, allowing both to be easily visible during your exam session.     You should still be able to read your exam at this distance while working out the math or reviewing any notes you may have. Make sure to try out different setups ahead of time to ensure you are comfortable with your seating and the placement of your workspace.     Proctored exams are proctored for a reason – your professor wishes to test your understanding and learning in the course. The requirements and expectations they set for your proctored exams help them to assess your exam performance better and ensure that you are using permitted materials. It is your responsibility to demonstrate to your professor that you are following the requirements and standards of your proctored exam.
