Learn best practices to implementing an online proctoring service within an LMS as demonstrated by the University of Alaska-Anchorage (UAA), including most recent outcomes. UAA implemented online proctoring as a convenient, cost-effective, and minimally invasive solution to ensure the integrity of its distance learning and hybrid assessments. We will dive into the procurement process, rollout, hurdles, and share role-based success stories.
This session will outline the most important considerations for institutions that have made the decision to select and implement an online proctoring solution. The speakers will provide an overview of the models available today and provide a guided tour into how to successfully implement remote proctoring at a large university.
In 2016, University of Alaska-Anchorage (UAA) began introducing online proctoring as an additional option to face-to-face proctoring for its distance learning assessments. UAA partnered with PSI/Software Secure to ensure the integrity of assessments in its eLearning courses, and to offer students the convenience of completing assessments anytime – anywhere, while allowing instructors the freedom to design assessments as they intended.
During the ‘tour’, speakers from UAA eLearning and PSI/SSI will cover everything you need to ‘master’ for an online proctoring rollout, from implementation processes to timelines, including: First Steps, Faculty & Student Orientation, Training, Marketing, Support, and Tips & Tricks. It will also include an overview of the LTI integration between Blackboard and Software Secure, with references to how UAA specifically set it up along with roles of certain members that specifically act as the go-to-internal rep within UAA to help answer proctoring questions and provide a final review of records before providing results to faculty.
The presenters will also talk about UAA’s initial results before concluding with an open Q&A opportunity. By the end of the session, attendees should be well informed and equipped to advance their online proctoring initiative.
