Digiproctor review 2020

What Is Digiproctor?

Digiproctor is an online software designed by digiproctor.com for academic institutions for exams. Digiproctor provides a platform for schools, colleges and universities to offer examinations for their students, without the need for an invigilator’s presence.

The digiproctor testpad app monitors students as they do their exams, cubing any attempts by the student to cheat on the exam. It does this through the use of Artificial Intelligence(AI). I will discuss this in detail in the “How it works” section.

How Digiproctor Works.

Digiproctor is a perfect example of the power of AI technology in this time and era. It provides a secure platform that is bandwidth adaptive and very affordable to suit any institution’s needs to provide exams for its students.

In Kenya, known bodies like the Clinical Officers Council and the Nursing Council of Kenya, which are statutory bodies formed under the government of Kenya have started using the Digiproctor testpad as their preferred choice for online exams. (Reference)

I know you are really in doubt right now. How can this app really know if I cheat in exams? I can have someone in the background and they would know, I can google using my phone and they would know.

The AI checks the student’s photo and compares it to the one that is sent by their institution, and in this way makes it impossible to let someone else do the exam for the student(impersonation). It also checks the student’s behaviour and facial expression during exam time.

So let us see how it works;

  1. The institution or college first sends the students’ details to the Digi proctor to register the student in their system.
  2. The exam taker will be sent their login details via their email, for example, Gmail or Yahoo. This email will also contain a unique test key, which will be used to gain access to the exam
  3. Digiproctor will then require the student to scan their environment to check for any potential opportunities that might aid in cheating.
  4. If the environment is good, the student is then allowed to take the test.
  5. During the test, the Digi proctor then locks the screen. This makes sure the student can not access other apps, for example, Chrome, to Google for examination answers.
  6. The examined student will also be monitored throughout the whole examination to prevent cheating and impersonation.
  7. In case any irregularity is noticed, the student will receive an alert warning them. These irregularities lead to a reduced “Trust score”, with the lowest being zero.
  8. At the end of the exam, the student will receive the results, and the lecturer also receives the footage of the exam, as it was being live recorded, for them to check on it later

DIgiproctor Features

The digiproctor testpad has the following features that can be used by the institution and students during a protracted exam:

  1. Room scanning feature.
  2. Digiproctor Testpad Trust Score.
  3. Digiproctor timer
  4. Webcam to monitor student activities

Room scanning feature

Before an exam, a digiproctor is required to scan the room using their laptop or smartphone. This allows the Digiproctor testpad to scan the area around for any materials, or devices that can help the student in answering the exam questions.

When the AI detects any device, it will warn the student to clear the room before proceeding to the exam section.

DIgiproctor testpad Trust Score

This is a score developed by the digiproctor that scores how the students have individually handled themselves in the examination.

When the student starts the examination, their score is at 100%, this score will reduce when the students engage in any activity that is seen as cheating by the AI.

Some of the things that will reduce your trust core include:

  1. Any noise in the background.
  2. Any shadows around or any other person.
  3. The person being examined looks away from the screen.
  4. The student talking to someone else.

Digiproctor Timer

This feature enables the examiner to time their students for each paper during the examination. The exam will automatically end when the time ends.

For example, if the exam starts at 8 am and is set to end in 2 hours’ time, it will automatically end at 10 a.m. This happens even if the student has not finished answering all the questions.

Webcam To Monitor Students During Protracted Exam

The invigilator will be able to monitor the student using this web camera. Therefore, if your phone or laptop does not have a webcam, you will not be able to proceed to the exam section.

Digiproctor Testpad Trust score

During the test, the student is continuously monitored via their webcam or phone camera for any cheating attempts. When the AI notices any cheating attempts, the exam taker will be notified.

Any behaviour that is not allowed is taken as a cheating attempt.

The AI takes the following actions as a cheating attempt;

  1. If the student moves away from the exam window during the period.
  2. If there is no face that is detected on the test window
  3. If there is someone else helping you with the exam, and multiple faces are detected, this is counted as an irregularity.
  4. If the examined student tries to move away from the test window
  5. If you try using a phone, or any other thing that can aid you in cheating.
  6. If there is a voice in the background helping you.

Any of the this above will reduce your digiproctor Test score.
