Exam Proctoring: All exams in this course will be administered through Honorlock, an online proctoring service. To take exams, you must use a browser that supports the Honorlock Extension, such as Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge. You will be prompted to install the Honorlock Extension when you first log in. You will also need a reliable internet connection, a webcam, and a microphone.
During exams, Honorlock will monitor your testing environment using video, audio, and screen recordings. You will also be asked to show a valid photo ID and complete a brief room scan before starting. Please ensure you are in a quiet, well-lit space free of distractions. Any behaviors flagged by Honorlock will be reviewed by your instructor. You are expected to follow the exam rules provided for each test (e.g., no phones, no AI use). For additional details on preparing for a proctored exam, please consult the
