University and Higher Education

There are a number of reasons for your University to be considering a new exam proctoring solution, we're here to help, if your reason isn't below, feel free to reach out to us anyway. 

Minimizing disruption to students caused by Covid-19

Students have had a lot of disruption to their education, don't let that disruption continue to their exams. Remote Online Exam Proctoring provides a great platform to enable remote invigilation on assessments or exams, giving teachers confidence no cheating has occurred, maintaining the credibility of the certification and allowing students to show their true knowledge and ability. 

Future planning to expand geographically 

Online or distance learning provides a great opportunity for universities and other higher education institutes to expand their reach of potential students, but it also adds complexity on how to invigilate exams. Setting up multiple assessment centers, accessible to remote students across different countries is not only a logistical challenge, but expensive too. 

Modern remote proctoring solutions cover the basics of website blocking and preventing access to defined applications during the assessment and allow for monitoring of the environment through webcams and enhanced risk assessment through audio detection, face recognition, and object recognition techniques. 

Replacing an existing proctored solution

A lot of existing exam proctoring solutions haven't kept up with modern risks associated with online exams.  Exam proctoring is nothing new; technology has existed for years to block access to defined websites or lock down systems so users can't access restricted information. Exam proctoring solutions haven't kept pace with the shift in education dynamics and home technology availability. 

Are you confident the student registered for the exam is the one sitting at the keyboard? Are they on their phone talking with peers and collaborating during the assessment? Are they asking a smart speaker or device in the room questions, and how can you distinguish between someone just reading the question out loud to help them process it or accessing an intelligent speaker. 

A modern exam proctor needs to be able to identify all of these risks and make them visible to teachers and where critical risks are identified, blocking further progress on the exam. 

Mona Lisa is always watching 

The Mona Lisa Exam Proctor utilises a lightweight application installed on the students’ computers; this allows monitoring of the computer and environment for the exam duration. 

Any data captured is processed in the cloud using artificial intelligence and machine learning to identify potential risks and alert the teachers, allowing them to decide the next steps. 

Mona Lisa is always watching - the exam proctor platform provides teachers and invigilators the visibility they need to ensure students aren’t cheating but rather gain the grades their hard work deserves. 

By monitoring application and web usage, artificial intelligence, machine learning and data analytics, our platform identifies over 30 different risk categories providing a real depth of insights for educational institutions whilst enabling remote exam invigilation.
