Here is some great information for students about logging into the Respondus “Lockdown Browser” on campus. This browser is designed for students taking online tests and “locks” them out of using other applications or web browsers until the test is completed.
For more information on this program, contact eLearning or TSS.
Respondus Lockdown Browser is currently installed in the 4102 student lab, the 4214 lab and the reference computers. To access Respondus, first log in to your student account not “guest”. Second, make sure you do not have other web browsers open or you will have to close and retry. Third, look for a shortcut icon on the student desktop that looks like the one to the right.
The new software version does not have the word “Respondus” on the icon which can be a bit confusing. From the desktop once you double click to open the program, you will also need to choose “Canvas Shoreline Community College” by selecting the down arrow on the choose server window.
From the start screen with the apps, you can click the down arrow at the bottom right side of the screen to load all the current apps. Then scroll over (or touch the screen to slide to the left) and look for the program “Respondus”. There you will again see the same icon as pictured above. (Lockdown Browser).
