Rldb Monitor
Online tests and quizzes that call for proctoring are protected from cheating using Respondus LockDown Browser (RLDB) and Monitor. Prior to sitting for any exam that calls for RLDB, students must install and update it.
Folio Limitless Database (RLDB) limits apps, records audio and video from a webcam during assessments, and interacts completely with Folio.
Installation
Using your camera for proctored exam monitoring remotely using automatic proctoring technology, Respondus Lockdown Browser and Monitor (RLDB) can be utilized in a lab or classroom setting to restrict students from accessing other websites or programs while taking tests. If an instructor decides to use RLDB in a quiz, test, or exam through MyCourses, you will be instructed to install this program onto your own PC and use RLDB with this quiz, test, or exam. UNG has integrated this technology across its campus PCs.
The most recent version and update must be installed before taking any quiz, test, or exam that uses RLDB. Additionally, any programs that might conflict with it, such as Dropbox, Spotify, Skype, etc., should be closed as they might affect how it functions. Finally, virus prevention software ought to be turned off as well because RLDB can require uninterrupted operation.
Proctoring
An autonomous remote proctoring tool called Respondus Monitor is used to prevent students from cheating on online tests. Respondus records their face and other elements of the testing environment using their camera before sending teachers the video recordings and proctoring reports after the exam. If an incident occurs, instructors can take corrective action, such as recapturing videos, disabling student microphones, or blocking webcams. They can also take preventative action, such as disabling microphones, blocking webcams, or even disabling students’ webcams, microphones, or microphones. Monitor also uses powerful analytics that flag moments during an exam session that might indicate violations.
When turned on, RLDB and Monitor forbid students from printing, copying, accessing other URLs, or printing or copying while taking a test. Additionally, exams created in Canvas can be set to display in full screen mode so that they cannot be minimized or exited until they are submitted for marking.
Install the RLDB program well in advance of the exam to ensure that it functions properly, and practice taking quizzes with this feature turned on to get accustomed to how it works. With Monitor, Valdosta State University is authorized to proctor online exams utilizing this system at no additional cost.
It is possible to prevent backlighting problems that make students’ features seem as silhouettes in recorded video footage by having them take exams in well-lit spaces with their light source in front rather than behind. Respondus Support Service is available 24/7 at 1-888-547-7767 for support and direction if any problems should occur during an exam session.
