Meazure Learning’s focus on progressing learning management system (LMS) integrations is rooted in a simple yet fundamental commitment: to deliver reliable and user-friendly proctoring for all. This ongoing commitment has informed our latest initiatives to streamline the testing experience, remove friction from the setup process for admin and faculty, and create a more intuitive journey for students.
As a 1EdTech-certified LTI user, our LMS integrations meet rigorous industry standards and ensure our features and functionality serve the institutions that rely on the ProctorU Platform.
LMS Integrations Designed to Meet Your Proctoring Needs
The updated integrations with Canvas, D2L, Blackboard, and Moodle give institutions the flexibility to tailor proctoring configurations to their unique needs—such as allowed resources, notification settings, and more. Using the latest technology, these configurations centralize online proctoring setup within the LMS environment, eliminating the need to navigate to multiple platforms. What does that mean for administrators, faculty, and students? Access to everything they need right there in the LMS—no extra steps, no added stress.
What Are the Benefits of the LMS Integrations?
These updates deliver significant advantages, from robust security and a simplified testing journey for students to flexibility and fewer administrative steps for faculty. Let’s take a closer look at the key benefits made to refine the overall proctoring process.
Enriched Student Experience
More harmonious integration between the plateforme ProctorU and an institution’s preferred LMS allows students to complete every step of the testing process—from equipment compatibility and security checks to exam launch—within an environment they already use and trust. This eliminates the need for test-takers to juggle multiple platforms and credentials, making exam access seamless. This added convenience helps test-takers feel better prepared for test day, reduces confusion, and eases stress.
Increased Efficiency for Institutions
These recent integration updates make it easier to assign, deliver, and monitor exams across institution-level roles.
For faculty and administrators, this means less manual work. If exams are already set up within their chosen LMS, the integrations can effortlessly pull essential information—such as the exam name, password, URL, access window, expected test-taker count, and, in most cases, exam duration—during the proctoring configuration process. The LMS acts as the central source of truth for this critical data, so there’s no need to re-enter info or worry about human error.
Furthermore, faculty can select any number of existing exams and configure them for proctoring with just a few clicks. Once selected, they can be manually synced for immediate use or automatically updated each night—making it easier to consolidate administrative tasks. All of this happens within the LMS, so faculty can enjoy the full functionality of the ProctorU Platform without leaving their familiar interface.
Strengthened Exam Security
We understand that safeguarding sensitive information is a top priority for institutions and test-takers. The updated LMS integrations address this critical need by leveraging OAuth 2.0, the established industry standard for secure account creation and authorization between two platforms. This reduces the number of steps required in the proctoring process and significantly lowers the risk of unpermitted access for administrators, faculty, and students.
Common Questions About Our LMS Integrations
Are your updated proctoring integrations compatible with my LMS?
We’ve focused on integrating the ProctorU Platform with widely used LMSs to ensure broad applicability in higher education. Currently, our integrations support these common LMSs:
- Canvas (both Classic Quizzes and New Quizzes)
- D2L/Brightspace
- Blackboard (both Base Navigation and Ultra)
- Moodle
Can the proctoring configurations be customized to my institution?
While our standard LMS integrations include configuration settings that meet most proctoring needs, we understand that institutions often have unique requirements. To accommodate this, we offer support for non-standard setups through our Application Programming Interfaces (APIs). We can also provide custom builds given appropriate implementation timelines. Our goal is to align with institutional guidelines and provide a solution that can adapt and grow alongside evolving LMS strategies.
Can the integrations be enabled at the course level within the chosen LMS? If so, who has permission to make this change?
Yes. Typically, an LMS administrator has the primary control to enable these features. However, many institutions also choose to let instructors use the integration tools in their individual courses. This allows for decentralized control and empowers instructors to manage their proctoring needs directly within their course environments.
Building a Better Online Proctoring Experience
As testing needs become more complex, we recognize the growing demand for both convenience and accountability in online proctoring. Our LMS integrations are developed with this in mind, prioritizing a smooth and reliable experience for faculty, staff, and students. By focusing on ease of use and robust functionality within familiar learning environments, Meazure Learning aims to provide proctoring solutions that support academic integrity without adding complexity to the testing process.
