To use Honorlock with Classic Quizzes, first you need to remove Proctorio.

  • Currently, we have not completed testing Honorlock with New Quizzes in Canvas. Please continue to use Classic/Original Quizzes until further notice if you are using Honorlock.
  • If you have used Proctorio with a previous quiz and imported the quiz into your current course, you may need to Remove Proctorio Quiz settings before using Honorlock. In edit mode:
    1. Edit the title of the Quiz to remove the words “(Remotely Proctored)” if needed
    2. Check in the quiz for hidden HTML code from Proctorio to completely delete references to Proctorio and the warning sign that pops up for students.

    3. In the quiz settings, uncheck “Require an access code” if it is checked. (After you enable Honorlock, the access code will be automatically populated.)
    4. Save the changes.

Using Honorlock with Canvas

  • This video How to Use Honorlock Faculty Guide, illustrates the step-by-step process for installing Honorlock in your Canvas class. However, before you start, navigate from Settings to your Course Navigation Menu, and select Honorlock from the list so it shows on your Course Navigation Menu. In our classes it is called Honorlock 1.3.
  • The most current written instructions are available on this webpage called Using Honorlock with Canvas
  • This tip is for you to remind students: Honorlock only works on the Chrome browser with the Honorlock extension added. The extension only needs to be added once, but students can delete it and reinstall it if they wish. Note that Honorlock will not work if the Proctorio extension is enabled on the browser, so students need to disable or remove the Proctorio extension from the browser before the Honorlock extension can be used.

Remember, the first step for faculty is to remove Proctorio using the steps to clear out the HTML which gives students errors. The next step for you is to add Honorlock to the course and enabling the quiz you want to use with Honorlock. Students only need to add the Honorlock Chrome extension. You all need to be using the Chrome browser.
