Assumptions

  • The course administrator has the necessary permissions to configure lesson settings within Thinkific LMS.
  • The Proview browser extension is installed on the computers of all students who will be taking the exam. Or instruction is provided as part of lesson descriptions to install the Proview browser extension
  • The administrator has the Proview Browser extension installed and is familiar with basic navigation and operations within the Thinkific LMS platform.

​
Limitations

  • Extension requirement for instructors: If the Proview proctoring extension is not installed, the quiz proctoring settings section will not appear. While the course admin is aware of this requirement, instructors may not be. Therefore, it is the responsibility of the course admin to inform all instructors within the organization to install the Proview extension on their systems to enable proctoring settings.
  • Manual proctoring termination: A stop proctoring button is required because proctoring cannot be stopped automatically as the exam is loaded in an iframe.
  • iPad not supported: Proview proctoring is not supported on iPad devices. Test takers attempting to take a proctored session on any web browser on their iPad will not be able to do so.
  • Chatbot support removed: The chatbot (freshchat) support feature has been removed, which means candidates can no longer use the chatbot to communicate with the support team. However, a link to chat with Talview Technical Support will be present.
  • Proctoring in separate tab: Proctoring is conducted in a separate tab from the quiz. If the student closes the proctoring tab, they can still continue the exam in the quiz tab, compromising the integrity of the proctoring process.
  • Secure browser availability: SB and its features like screen protection & app blacklisting are not available for configuration yet.
  • Multi attempt tracking unavailable: Currently, Thinkific LMS restricts students to only one attempt for a quiz.
