Online Proctoring
Respondus Monitor is an added feature for Respondus LockDown Browser, which is a tool that restricts student access to other programs or views outside of the test they are taking. Both Respondus Monitor and Respondus LockDown Browser work within eLC and with ALEKS.
When enabled, Respondus Monitor requires students to use a webcam and microphone with LockDown Browser. After the exam is complete, the instructor can review details of the assessment, reports generated by Respondus, and recordings of students having taken the exam.
Note also the About Respondus, Introductory Video, Rapid Rollout Guides provided by Respondus, as these resources may also be helpful in navigating the tool.
