Here are a few things some students forget during online proctoring and may cause issues in validating your test results. During the room scan: You need to run your computer camera from one side of the desk to the other showing a clear space with only blank scratch paper, a pencil, and a calculator. There should be no cell phone or any type of digital tablet close to you during the test. You should be the only person in the room while taking the test. If it happens that someone walks in and you had to talk to them, please explain this in a quick email right after you submit your test. Some students like to watch TV while taking the test or listen to music during the test. Honorlock captures any spoken language and your test might be flagged for a side conversation. Taking an online test requires the same behavior as taking the test on Campus. I understand that you might be frustrated at some point but please refrain yourself from using any cuss words. Watch how I scan my desk during the 360 room scan—if you did it like this too, we’re totally on the same wavelength!
