proctoring
Overseeing test-takers
Proctoring is supervising students during an examination to prevent cheating and ensure fair conditions.
A proctor monitors test-takers, verifies identities, enforces time limits, and addresses irregularities.
Online proctoring uses software to watch students through webcams during remote exams: The exam requires proctoring, so you'll need your camera on.
