Instructor Live Proctoring   

Institutions that license LockDown Browser and Respondus Monitor have an additional remote proctoring option that works with Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet and other video systems. The new “Instructor Live Proctoring” option uses LockDown Browser to prevent cheating on the computer itself, while the instructor watches students via video conferencing. This method is only recommended for small class sizes where instructors can effectively observe and track students during the exam.

The following versions of LockDown Browser support the Instructor Live Proctoring option: Windows, MacOS and the new Chromebook Extension. LockDown Browser for iPad doesn’t directly support this option (the iPad assessment mode doesn’t allow multiple apps to run simultaneously), but similar results can be achieved if a second device is used. 

The Instructor Live Proctoring option has been formally tested with Zoom, Microsoft Teams and Google Meet. But it should work with any web-based video conferencing system.
