RPNow Information

RPNow is an on-demand service for proctoring online exams in an LMS (Learning Management System) such as Canvas. Here is a site with some background information if you are interested https://www.psionline.com/rpnowuniversity/asu.

RPNow Process

Faculty identify when they will be holding exams during the semester.

Faculty set up a practice exam within their course well in advance of the first exam. This gives students the opportunity to practice using the system in a low-stakes environment and gives faculty the opportunity to ask questions before an actual exam. These practice exams do not need to have points attached and can be very simple.

Faculty creates the exam within RPNow. 

Faculty can review the exam and set-up.

Exam is launched and students complete the exam.

Flagged student violation recordings are reviewed for academic integrity concerns.

Faculty are able to grade and return the exams electronically.
