Respondus LockDown Browser™ is a custom browser that locks down the testing environment within Canvas. It prevents students from accessing an exam within a regular browser. When students use Respondus LockDown Browser they are unable to print, copy, go to another URL, or access other applications. When an assessment is started, students are locked into it until they submit it for grading.

·Works seamlessly with your Respondus Monitor license:There are no hoops to jump through, no wires to twist together. Instructors simply link their LMS course to a MyLab course and the magic occurs from there.
·New reporting: Usage reports have been updated so admins can see Respondus Monitor use across each LMS course and publishing system.
·Easy set-up for Instructors: Instructors perform a one-time, two-step process for linking their MyLab course to Respondus Monitor.
·Overview video & resources: learn how to use Pearson MyLab with Respondus Monitor atRespondus.com/MyLab.
We have created a helpful 'Tips for Success on Remote Exams and Quizzes' document for you to distribute to students explaining how to use the LockDown Browser for Exams and Quizzes.
