Video Quizzes
With YuJa, you have the ability to do a video quiz. A video quiz is a YuJa video with embedded quiz questions that appear as the video plays. Instructors can add these video quizzes to a Blackboard module as a “check for understanding” component or they can be added to the Blackboard Grade Center as an Assignment, which stores and score student results on the video quiz.
See the Video Quiz Overview help article or view the Using Video Quizzes video for details.
Exam Proctoring
YuJa Exam Proctoring allows the student to record video/audio and their computer screen while completing an exam. The recording is securely allocated to a centralized instructor folder which will avoid distribution of the exam recording by the student.
See the Exam Proctoring help article for details.
Enabling Exam Proctoring using Software Capture
Exam Proctoring ensures the security of student exams taken from remote locations. Exam Proctoring also allows the instructor to provide tools to record video. The Proctor Recorder also ensures that the recording is only securely allocated to a centralized instructor folder which will avoid distribution of the exam recording by the student. In order for the Proctor Recorder to appear, Content Creators (Instructors) need to enable the Proctor setting within their respective courses.

YuJa Proctoring with Respondus LockDown Browser
Respondus LockDown Browser can be used in addition to YuJa Proctoring for an extra layer of exam security.
Respondus LockDown Browser is a secure custom web browser that locks down the testing environment within Blackboard; test-takers are unable to print, copy, go to another URL, or access other applications. Instructors may opt to add exceptions (e.g., allow printing or access to a certain web page). When an assessment is started, students are locked into it until they submit for grading. It's compatible with Mac and Windows.

How to Get Started with YuJa Proctoring for Students
Before using YuJa proctoring for the first time,students must download and install the YuJa Software Capture application. Using screen capture and their webcam, this application creates a recording of the students exam session which is then shared with you, as the instructor. YuJa Software Capture is a one-time download, so they won’t need to repeat this download and installation process for every exam.
