Abstract

How UCF (University of Central Florida) built a free proctoring solution for their learning management system. We used the LTI standard which is incorporated into our Learning Management System, the open source LMS Canvas by Instructure. Using HTML5 and custom javascript to embed webcam video into the test page itself, building a django app to store, display, and encode video to instructors. Figuring out storage requirements for a university with over 50,000 students. Gathering faculty and student feedback.
