Created Dec 05, 2022Helping Student with Respondus (LockDown Browser)
Students will need help the first time they use the LockDown Browser. Follow this guide to help them!
We will automatically push the browser to all devices. However, it's possible for many reasons for their device to never get installed.
To check to see if the browser is already installed. Look for the LockDown Browser Icon on the student's desktop.

Important: Do not choose to "Download LockDown Browser". The students already should have the program installed from the steps above. This download link will not work for them.
The students will be given a box that says "Open LockDown Browser" you will need to have them choose this.
EXTRA TIP: if they choose the box that says "Always allow lmsd.schoology.com to open file links of this type" they will not be prompted in the future to allow the Browser to launch.

Once the student finishes the Test or Assessment, the browser will close. It will then take them back to the Schoology page where they started the test. It will look like the page is loading but it is not. They can navigate at this point away from the page and continue on with other work.
