Please note if you have any applications open, Respondus LockDown Browser will ask you to close them all for you before starting the exam. Once Respondus closes all your applications you can click on Start and begin your exam.

 

3 – During the Exam

Once the exam has started, students are locked into the exam. They’re unable to print, use copy/paste functions, go to other web addresses, or access other applications on the computer. Once the exam is completed, students are permitted to exit the browser and their computer will return to its normal state.

Sample Quiz

There is a Sample Quiz that uses lock-down browser available if you want to try setting up the app for completing an online quiz. Use the password "exit" to leave the quiz early.
