Converting Quizzes from Proctorio to Honorlock

If you are importing Proctorio-enabled quizzes, there are a few things you will need to do before the quizzes are ready for use with Honorlock in your new course. Proctorio is no longer active in the course so you will not need to deactivate anything. However, previously Proctorio-enabled quizzes leave behind a Proctorio Connection warning in the quiz that should be removed. 

Proctorio to Honorlock Warning

In addition, be sure that you remove all references to Proctorio from the actual quiz instructions or questions. If you don’t plan on proctoring the quiz through Honorlock, you’ll also want to adjust or remove the access code. 

To remove references to Proctorio from a quiz: 

  1. For Classic Quizzes, go into the Edit more for the quiz. In New Quizzes, go into Build mode. 
  2. In the rich content editor for the quiz instructions, click on the text or empty space right below the Proctorio connection warning. Note that clicking on the warning icon may take you to download the Proctorio extension or may only allow you to delete text and not the full warning.

  3. Hit the delete button on your keyboard to remove the warning message. 
  4. Remove all other references to Proctorio in the content of the instructions and quiz and replace them with Honorlock information, if you plan to enable Honorlock.  

    UX Tip

    If you plan to enable Honorlock, you may want to consider either leaving “(Remotely Proctored)” in the title of the quiz or adding instructions in the quiz that it will require the use Honorlock. Honorlock-enabled quizzes do not indicate that Honorlock is required until students start the quiz. 

  5. If you do not intend to use Honorlock on the quiz, you will want to remove the access code so students can take it without proctoring, or you can alter the access code to whatever you want. If enabling Honorlock, skip this step as enabling Honorlock will set a new access code on the quiz.  

    Caution

    Do not alter the Honorlock access code once it has been enabled. Doing so disables Honorlock from the quiz and may result in students taking the quiz outside of Honorlock. 

  6. If using Classic Quizzes, save the quiz.

At this point, you can proceed to administer the quiz without AI proctoring, or you can proceed to enable Honorlock on the quiz.
