Overview of online proctoring solutions

Posted on 14/08/2015 by

Eduventures published an update on remote exam proctoring, providing an overview of US based online proctoring providers. Roughly the systems can be divided into three catagories:

  1. Fully Automated Solutions: The computer monitors students and determines whether they are cheating.
  2. Record and Review: Sessions are recorded as the computer monitors students. A human can then review the video at any time afterward.
  3. Fully Live: Students are on video and watched remotely by a live proctor.

There seems to be a tendency to move towards fully automated solutions, since it is more cost efficient and the technical solutions become more and more available, like multi factor authentication, eye-tracking and automated cheat detection. There are also systems that integrate into the institutions test delivery system or LMS.

The systems that still use live proctoring (whether it is a live proctor or a review) also use advanced technologies to help the proctor detect cheating.

Eduventures promises to keep covering these systems and providers so the coming months I expect more in depth information on developments in this sector. Interesting!
