Respondus LockDown Browser™ creates a “locked” online testing environment for Desire2Learn quizzes.

When students use Lockdown Browser it works like a standard browser but they are unable to:

Enter new web addresses (URLs)
Access other applications (such as Instant Messenger or another browser for searching)
Minimize, resize, or exit the quiz until it is submitted for grading
Copy and paste to and from a quiz
Print or take screen shots of questions

Additional Information about using Lockdown Browser

A link to another web page on a quiz opens another browser window that is secure.
Browser menu and toolbar options are disabled except Back, Forward, Refresh and Stop
Right-click, key+click and function key options are disabled
Source code for the HTML page cannot be viewed
