All about assigning proctors to learners
How are learners assigned to proctors?
During Live-reviewed exams, learners are systematically assigned to proctors based on the room.
Consider a scenario where we have proctors numbered for illustration as follows: №1, №2, №33, and №67. Each proctor is allocated their own designated room where learners will be directed.
The allocation process is structured as follows:
- The first learner is assigned to proctor(room) №1.
- The second learner is assigned to proctor(room) №2.
- The third learner is assigned to proctor(room) №33.
- The fourth learner is assigned to proctor(room) №67.
- The fifth learner is again assigned to proctor(room) №1.
- The sixth learner is assigned to proctor(room) №2, and so forth.
Note: customization of learner assignment to a specific proctor is not currently feasible. This limitation is upheld to ensure the integrity and impartiality of learner evaluation by proctors. Therefore, the optimal approach involves proctors not having prior knowledge of the learners they assess, thus maintaining a fair and unbiased evaluation process.
What happens to learners if a proctor is disconnected during an exam due to internet problems?
Learners will be distributed among the other available proctors seamlessly, the learner will not notice the switch. If there are no available proctors, learners will be kept out of the rooms (this will not affect their exams, the exam will continue) until proctors are available.
How to add a new proctor during the exam?
A company administrator can create a proctor account in Administrators part of the Dashboard. Click the link below to find out how to do it:
Ability to move learners between proctoring rooms
Test administrators can manage the live proctoring process using the Rooms interface. In this interface, they can view a list of all active proctoring rooms, as well as the proctors and learners in each room.
Administrators now have the ability to move learners between proctoring rooms. This functionality is useful when assigning a learner to a specific room with a designated proctor or when adjusting workloads among proctors.
Assigning a specific proctor to an exam
This means that learners taking this exam will be assigned not to any available proctor but to the one assigned by the administrator.
In the first version, assigning Proctors to exams is only available in live mode and will be done by the Constructor Proctor per request.
