Used in conjunction with the Canvas Quizzes tool, Respondus offers two products to increase the integrity of online exams. Lockdown Browser is a custom browser that allows you literally lock down the online testing environment within the learning management system, preventing students from moving away from the testing browser to another browser or application on their machine. Respondus Monitor, integrated in Respondus Lockdown Browser, provides additional exam integrity by monitoring student activity during an exam session. Using the student’s web camera, Monitor is a fully automated proctoring solution that enables students to take online exams at any time without pre-scheduling an exam session.

Respondus Lockdown Browser prohibits the tester’s ability to navigate away from the testing environment or to open any other windows or applications during testing. Many instructors find this very helpful in maintaining online assessment integrity. While in the Lockdown Browser, testers view the assessment full screen and cannot minimize the window. The assessment also cannot be closed out until it is submitted for grading. Print, Print Screen, and screen capture functions do not work while the assessment is open and testers are unable to copy and paste anything to/from the assessment. Respondus Monitor increases exam integrity by providing a report to let instructors know if the student left the camera view or if another person came into the view.

Some features of LockDown Browser & Monitor are:

Assessments are displayed full-screen and cannot be minimized
Assessments cannot be exited until submitted by users for grading
Task switching or access to other applications is prevented
Printing functions are disabled
Copying and pasting anything to and from an assessment is prohibited
Right-click menu options are disabled (Windows); key + click options are disabled (Mac)
URLs cannot be typed by the user while links in questions that point to other servers don’t compromise the “locked” testing environment
Hundreds of screen capture, messaging, screen-sharing and network monitoring applications are blocked from running
The browser automatically starts at Rutgers login page for Canvas
No advanced scheduling required
And many other features…

Rutgers has an enterprise license for Respondus LockDown Browser & Monitor.

Instructors should note that this tool does not restrict students from using other internet-enabled devices (tablets, smartphones, etc.) to search the web or Canvas site. Students should have administrator rights to install, update and run applications on their computer.

Available for student-owned Chromebooks and MS-Windows and Mac computers. Download required.
