How to proctor an online activity with SMOWL in 5 steps?
Integration
SMOWL’s solution is fully integrated into your platform. The process is so simple that you can do it yourself, but if you need help, our support team will be available for you.
Training
We will carry out training sessions at the technical level and at the user level for your team. In addition, we will provide you with all the necessary user guides and materials so that everyone is ready before the activity.
Register
This process is only done once per user, and it serves to validate the user’s identity during any subsequent activity. There is also the possibility of requesting an official identity document, depending on your assessment requirements.
Proctoring
Automatically and according to the security parameters you have established, we will passively generate evidence of user activity from start to finish.
Depending on the type of solution you choose, you will be able to detect:
- If the user is the correct person.
- If there are two or more people doing the activity.
- If there is no one in front of the camera.
- If the user has other resources not allowed such as: headphones, notes, books, calculator, mobile phone, etc…
- If there are more than two users performing the activity in the same location.
- If there is any strange background noise, such as other voices.
- If the user enters other websites.
- Whether the user is copying and pasting or taking screenshots.
- If the user has other programs or documents open.
- If there is another screen, keyboard, mouse or camera connected to the computer.
- Among others…
