Secure Non-Venue-Based Assessments with The Invigilator
The Invigilator is a free education tool developed by Back Alley Technology, designed to facilitate assessments outside traditional venues while maintaining a controlled and supervised setting. Tailored for the education sector, it offers a secure environment for non-venue-based assessments. It aims to address challenges posed by proctoring tools and minimize risks associated with online assessments by implementing a strict control mechanism, ensuring data confidentiality within institutional contexts.
Efficiently functioning on mobile devices, The Invigilator boasts low battery consumption, minimal data usage, and does not require a continuous internet connection during assessments. Acting as a virtual invigilator, it monitors and verifies students during exams, with an in-app browser granting direct access to the Learner Management System (LMS). The app also includes a demo test feature for users to familiarize themselves, although some have reported encountering bugs and glitches like app crashes and image upload issues.
