Respondus Monitor

Respondus Monitor (RM) is a complimentary tool to Respondus Lockdown Browser that enables students to take online exams and confirm students’ identity through the use of a webcam which records exam sessions. Powerful analytics are used to detect suspicious behaviors during an exam session and a report, indicating overall risk level, is sent to the faculty member. Learn more about this tool at this website Respondus Monitor. Watch this video introduction to Respondus Monitor 

The new RM tool will supplement the Respondus Lock-Down Browser® (LDB) already enabled in SLATE, which locks down the testing environment during online quizzes/exams when activated.  Find information on LDB at this website  Respondus Lockdown Browser.  Webinars are offered online directly from Respondus. The sessions provide a detailed demonstration of both the Lockdown Browser and Monitor.
