I'm concerned the ProctorU software will mistake my nervous or thinking behaviours for cheating. Will I be accused of misconduct?
No. ProctorU do not make accusations of cheating. Proctors will report incidents that appear to be unusual. They are trained to notice suspicious behaviour, such as consistently looking down as if you are trying to see something under your desk. If you're looking around while you are thinking and it does not appear to be suspicious, it is unlikely the behaviour would be flagged. Even if your behaviour is flagged, only your Course Coordinator can decide if your activity is sufficient to justify an Academic Integrity investigation.
