ProctorU Record+

ProctorU Record+, is an automated proctoring solution that uses Artificial Intelligence during the exam. Both you and your screen are recorded throughout the duration of the exam, followed by a full review from a ProctorU proctor. The proctor then sends an incident report to the instructor if any potential academic integrity violations occur. 

In using ProctorU Record+, students need:

  • ProctorU Browser Extension (Chrome or Firefox)
  • High-speed internet connection
  • Webcam (internal or external)
  • Microphone and Audio (internal or external)
  • Windows or Apple Operating System
  • NJIT ID or Photo-Issued ID

Tips for Ensuring a Smooth Experience while using Record+

  • Important: ProctorU recommends that you test your equipment prior to your proctoring session. We recommend you click on the button that says "Connect to a Live Person" to fully test out your equipment.
  • For additional information about ProctorU, please visit their General FAQ page.
  • For equipment requirements and help, please visit ProctorU’s Equipment FAQ page for additional information.
  • Make sure you are logged out of your ProctorU account in all other browser tabs/windows.
  • Do a computer/browser restart right before taking the exam.
  • Whenever possible, use an ethernet (wired) connection when taking an exam. Intermittent lag, timeouts, and dropped/interrupted connections may occur via wireless connection and can cause issues such as Record+ (formerly called Review+) disconnecting from the exam, freezing-up on users with weak/slow connections, quiz answers not being saved or submitted, and embedded images in the quiz loading very slowly or not at all.
