Secure proctoring adapted to your institution's budget
Today it is important to hire virtual exam supervision systems that are in line with the Latin American economic context. In this note we detail why Klarway is the best option for educational institutions.
Finding proctoring solutions adapted to the Latin American market can represent a great challenge. Changing monetary policies, combined with the inflationary periods in each region, make the search for these tools sometimes difficult.
The needs in education have taken a 360° turn in recent years. Now it is an essential requirement to offer virtual curricula capable of guaranteeing higher levels of access to learning.
In that sense, it is essential to accompany online education with exam monitoring systems. With the acquisition of good proctoring, not only accessibility and flexibility to the evaluation process is made possible, but growth is also driven for universities, which can expand globally by increasing the number of students who enroll year after year.

Practices of dishonesty in evaluations can take on different behaviors, such as copying from written paper, or from another student's exam. Specifically in virtual education, it can occur by consulting the internet, bibliographic materials, or other people present. It can also consist of plagiarizing a work or even identity replacement, that is, someone other than the student conducting the evaluation instance.
Why do they resort to this easy and dishonest solution when demonstrating their learning?
In the first instance, it is due to lack of study and understanding of the topics covered in class, which adds to the pressure to pass. Secondly, sometimes it happens that there is not enough awareness about the meaning of copying and how that affects academic integrity not only personally, but also of the educational institution.
As for online education, it is undeniable that, although it is a potential for learning, some students see it as a way for fraud and cheating. The use of technological tools for evaluation, such as cell phones and computers, facilitate access to information quickly, which becomes a temptation difficult to avoid when, as already mentioned, there was lack of study and understanding.
This is intensified when exams contain questions that, on one hand, can be easily found in a search engine or in the bibliographic materials of the subject; and on the other, are closed-ended, with instant verification.
Another cause of copying practices is the lack of supervision. In face-to-face evaluations, such control can be done using just a glance. However, in virtual education this becomes difficult, which is easily reversible if the teacher and educational institution has an online proctoring system, that is, remote online exam supervision.
In recent years, especially after the COVID-19 pandemic, more and more establishments are incorporating it to prevent fraudulent technological strategies in evaluation instances. Some software of this type execute real-time monitoring of each action; others supervise the exam from beginning to end, corroborating the student's identity through biometric data.
