ProctorU Intros AI-Based Online Proctoring
Online proctoring and identity management company ProctorU today launched ProctorU Auto, an automated online proctoring solution that uses artificial intelligence to flag suspicious test-taking behavior in real time.
Features of the product include:
- Machine learning allows ProctorU Auto to adapt to student behavior, improving its analysis with each exam;
- Facial recognition, eye movement tracking and auditory analysis identify suspicious behavior;
- Incident reports and session activity data are generated at the end of an exam;
- With real-time exam view, faculty can observe students taking exams as if they were in the classroom;
- Multi-factor authentication — ID and photo capture, facial recognition and keystroke analysis — verifies student identities;
- The platform is available on-demand with no scheduling required;
- Integration with Blackboard and Canvas via LTI; and
- Live support is available to students and faculty 24/7.
In addition, ProctorU Auto is available with two added service levels:
- ProctorU Auto with Professional Review, which "provides trained and certified professional proctors to review flagged behaviors from the testing session and confirm breaches of academic integrity," and
- ProctorU Auto with Live Launch and Professional Review, which "includes test-taker identification verified by a live proctor prior to the start of the testing session and then the same level of professional review for the recorded session," according to a company statement.
