How to Proctor Final Exams Online for Moodle
Link your Moodle quiz activity as the exam destination in Neuroxa, and students will pass through identity verification and browser lockdown before reaching the Moodle quiz page; scores and attempts are still recorded natively in Moodle's gradebook while Neuroxa's trust report is generated as a separate integrity record for faculty.
Proctoring signal comparison
| Signal | What it checks | Setup time | What's monitored |
|---|---|---|---|
| Identity check | Government ID or student/employee ID scan matched to a live face capture before the session starts | ~1 minute | Face match, ID document authenticity, name match against roster |
| Environment lockdown | Browser lockdown (blocks tab switching, copy-paste, new windows) and full-screen enforcement | ~1-2 minutes | Active window, screen content, secondary display/device presence |
| Behavior & gaze tracking | Continuous webcam analysis for gaze-off-screen, face absence, and multiple-person detection | Runs automatically once started | Eye movement, head pose, audio/noise spikes, person count |
| Trust report | Post-session summary flags anomalies with timestamps for human review rather than auto-failing candidates | Delivered after submission | Consolidated flags across identity, environment, and behavior signals |
Frequently asked questions
Does Moodle need a plugin installed for this to work?
Neuroxa proctors the session by wrapping the exam link, which is generally simpler than installing and maintaining a Moodle-specific plugin; check current setup docs for your Moodle version.
Will attempt limits and time limits set in Moodle still apply?
Moodle's own quiz settings (attempts, time limits, question pools) continue to function; Neuroxa adds identity and behavior monitoring around that same session.
How do faculty review flagged Moodle exam attempts?
Flagged events appear in the Neuroxa trust report, separate from the Moodle gradebook, so faculty can cross-reference a specific attempt with its integrity flags.
Is setup different for a self-hosted Moodle instance versus Moodle Cloud?
Both are typically supported since proctoring wraps the quiz URL rather than requiring server-level access; confirm specifics for a self-hosted deployment with your IT team.
