Respondus Monitor + LockDown Browser
Respondus Monitor + LockDown Browser is currently enabled in CUNY's Blackboard Learning Management System.
- Respondus Lockdown browser is a custom browser that prevents students from accessing the web or other applications during the exam
- Respondus Monitor records the student while taking the exam and is available for both operating systems, Windows and Mac. Students use their own computer and a webcam to record assessment sessions, all without leaving the Blackboard course.
How it Works
- Students start LockDown Browser, log into Blackboard Learn, and complete a brief startup sequence prior to the exam.
- The student and their surrounding environment are recorded during the entire exam.
- Instructors can quickly review details of the assessment and even watch the recorded videos.
