Respondus Monitor tracks and records suspicious behavior such as using a secondary device, calculator, textbook or receiving assistance from other students. Respondus Monitor creates a flagged and timestamped video for the instructor to review.

Respondus Test Generator can be used in the Canvas environment.   Exams can be created offline using a familiar Windows environment, or moved from one eLearning system to another. Whether you are a veteran of online testing or relatively new to it, Respondus will save you hours on each project.
