Using AutoProctor with Microsoft Forms

Introduction

Microsoft Forms is a versatile tool for creating surveys, quizzes, and tests, widely used in educational and corporate environments for its integration with the Office 365 suite. Integrating AutoProctor with Microsoft Forms allows you to add an extra layer of security and integrity to your assessments. This guide will walk you through the process of using AutoProctor with Microsoft Forms, ensuring your online tests are conducted in a secure, monitored environment.

Steps to Use AutoProctor with Microsoft Forms

1. Create Your Test in Microsoft Forms - Start by designing your quiz or test in Microsoft Forms. Make sure all questions are properly set up and that the form is ready for participants.

2. Log In to Your AutoProctor Account - Access your AutoProctor dashboard by logging in. If you do not have an account yet, you will need to create one by following the instructions provided in the AutoProctor signup process.

3. Link Your Microsoft Form to AutoProctor - In the AutoProctor dashboard, look for the option to integrate with Microsoft Forms. You will be prompted to enter the URL of your Microsoft Form. Copy and paste the link from your Microsoft Forms test into the designated field in AutoProctor.

4. Configure Proctoring Settings - After linking your form, AutoProctor will allow you to configure various proctoring settings. This includes options such as camera and microphone access, browser tab monitoring, and setting up rules for what constitutes a violation during the test.

5. Generate the Proctored Test Link - Once you have configured your settings, AutoProctor will provide you with a unique, secure link for your proctored test. This is the link you should distribute to your test-takers, not the direct link to the Microsoft Form.

6. Distribute the Test to Participants - Share the AutoProctor-generated link with your participants. You can do this through email, your learning management system, or any other method you typically use to communicate with your test-takers.

7. Monitor the Test in Real-Time - As participants take the test, you can monitor the proctoring in real-time through your AutoProctor dashboard. This feature allows you to see if any violations are detected during the test.

8. Review the Results and Proctoring Report - After the test is completed, you can review the results in Microsoft Forms. Additionally, AutoProctor provides a detailed proctoring report, including trust scores, detected violations, and comprehensive analytics of the test session.
