Enabling an Exam with Meazure/Proctoru (Record+) within Canvas
 

Live+

• The person who schedules the Proctoru session, in most cases the instructor, must have a Meazure/Proctoru faculty account, otherwise the scheduling will not go forward. 
• Once an exam is scheduled for Live+ proctoring with Meazure/Proctoru there will be a 24-48 timeframe before the exam is available for scheduling by students.  
• Be aware that there are extra charges from $8 to $12 for students who schedule within 48-72 of the exam date and a higher fee for scheduling within 24 hours of the exam time.

 

Getting Started with Live+ (video)

Note: all Live+ exams must be configured by Meazure after you fill out this form. The 2 week minimum time before the test is the recommended time to avoid student late fees, but is not required. OSU does not have Review+.
