Proctorio

Overview

The Proctorio integration makes use of an External Learning Tool (LTI) link shared to all courses. 

Proctorio allows for an instructor to click on the Proctorio link to download the Chrome browser extension. The browser extension is required to configure the quiz for proctoring, and for students to attempt the quiz.

Recommendation: Disable the browser extension when not using Proctorio, to improve performance and security on your device.
