setting. Most faculty elect not to employ this feature. The officially supported enterprise technology for exam security on our campus is Respondus Lockdown Browser and Respondus Monitor.

Safe Exam Browser (SEB) is a customized web browser, available for Windows, macOS, and iOS. The application must be downloaded and installed on the device that the student uses to attempt the quiz. It controls access to resources like system functions (CTRL+C or V, Print Screen, etc), other websites and , applications, and prevents unauthorized resources from being used during an exam. SEB runs on a local computer and it is connected via the internet to a learning management system. There is no support system for this technology beyond yourself, and the knowledge base we have on our team. Again, Respondus is the official 3rd-party service that we contract for exam security.

Info

Be sure to have students use the Chrome browser to access Safe Exam Browser.  There are known issues using Firefox.

If a quiz needs to be taken using the Safe Exam Browser, then SEB settings can be configured by the teacher in the quiz settings under the "Safe Exam Browser" section.

If SEB has been enabled, students can only attempt the quiz using the Safe Exam Browser.

titleCreate SEB Sample Quiz
  • To avoid situations where learners do not know if Safe Exam Browser works on their own computers, add a SEB sample quiz with a few sample questions to the course (not necessarily related to the course topic). The A practice exam is a place for students to test if SEB works on their devices.
  • Question types that require JavaScript (such as dragging, aligning, etc.) may not work in a quiz with SEB configuration. When using these types of questions, it is necessary to test in advance the entire quiz in Safe Exam Browser.
