Remote Teaching Resources for Law Faculty

FIU has contracted with Honorlock to provide proctoring for up to two exams per student in each class section during the remainder of the Spring 2020 semester.  The cost of proctoring the two aforementioned exams will be funded by the university and will not be passed on to the student.

Honorlock is a proctoring solution that helps protect the academic integrity of assessments created within your Canvas course while offering students the ability to take their exams within the time frame allotted by the instructor. Honorlock uses automated integrity analytics and artificial intelligence to provide a human-free proctoring service.

Testing accommodations: Testing accommodations such as extended time on exams can still be applied by faculty in advance prior to the exam date. Additionally, accommodations such as notes on exams, frequent breaks, and readers/scribes, are some of the accommodations that will still need to be flagged within the proctoring guidelines to ensure that there are no issues with the facilitation of this accommodation within the software.

If you are interested in using Honorlock, it is already available for use directly in your FIU Canvas course! To learn how to set up your first Canvas assessment with Honorlock, use the how-to guides below.

If students are in need of a laptop or a hot spot for the remainder of the semester:

• Students should fill out the PC's for Panthers form at http://go.fiu.edu/pcsforpanthers.  Requests will be added in the order they are received and students will be notified via e-mail if the request can be filled.
• Students who have been notified that technology is available for pick up must do so on Thursday, March 26 or Friday, March 27 from GL or HL from noon - 4pm on both days.  These are the final days available for pickup. If requested devices are not picked up, these will go to the next student on the waiting list.
• Please note the library entrances remain locked. However, staff will admit one student at a time to receive loaner devices.
• If you have any questions regarding loaners, please contact scholarships@fiu.edu.
