Optional - 1.2.4 Proctoring Resources

William & Mary uses the remote proctoring service Honorlock for remote and online teaching environments that require proctored assessments. This service is paid for by the university and there is no cost to students. However, we encourage all instructors to carefully consider assessment goals before utilizing Honorlock. Sometimes a simpler and lower-stress environment is a better approach. Review the following resources to learn more about assessment decisions, proctoring with Honorlock, and getting started in Blackboard.

• Exam integrity matrix

• About Honorlock (faculty introduction)

• Student FAQs (Dean of Students office)

• Getting started with Honorlock in Blackboard

• Practice test with Honorlock (recommended for all users)

• Student Honorlock checklist (recommended for all users)
