Proctored Exams Syllabus Update

If your course includes proctored Canvas exams through Honorlock, then the recent change to FSU’s Testing Center services will require an update to the Proctored Exams policy in your course syllabus. You can ensure students have the most current information on testing with Honorlock by using our recommended syllabus language for Honorlock exams.

Updating Your Online Canvas Syllabus

If you are using the online syllabus template from Design Tools in your Canvas course, then you will need to remove your current Proctored Exams block because it will not automatically update to reflect this new syllabus language.

• You will need to replace it with the new Proctored Exams block to ensure that you have the current policy in your syllabus.
• Please follow the directions for updating your syllabus Proctored Exams policy for your current or upcoming course according to the circumstances that best describe your current course building or course delivery state.

Though action is required now, once you have this new policy block added to your Canvas syllabus, it will automatically update to include the latest version of FSU’s proctored exam policy each time you click the edit button on your course syllabus page in the future. You can rest assured that future changes to the proctored exam policy will be included in your syllabus even if you use the course copy feature to bring your syllabus over from your current course to your future course sites.
