🖥️ Screen sharing during the exam

​

Step 1: Review the instructions

On the screen-sharing page:

• You’ll see a short visual guide (GIF or preview) showing how to share your screen
• A message explains that the proctor needs to view your entire screen before the exam starts

This ensures all exam activity is visible and monitored correctly.

​

Step 2: Click “Share Screen”

Click the Share Screen button to proceed. A system window will open, allowing you to choose what you want to share.

​

Step 3: Choose what to share

You’ll see three options:

• Browser (Any browser tab)
• Window
• Entire Screen

​

Step 4: Start sharing

Once you’ve selected Entire Screen:

• Click Share
• Your screen sharing will begin
• The proctoring system will confirm the screen is visible

After this step, you’ll be allowed to proceed with the exam.
