For Instructors

• How to require the use of LockDown Browser for your exam on Blackboard.
• How to "fix it" and ensure your quiz is set up properly

Instructions for Students:

1. Before the test date, download the LockDown Browser

• Download Link for the Respondus Browser

2. At the test: To run the LockDown Browser:

• First close all programs (outlook, web browsers, everything)
• Search for LockDown where you search for your installed programs (Mac or Windows searchbar), and open Lockdown Browser
• You may receive a message that gives you the options to "close programs" or "exit LockDown browser".  Select "close programs".
• When LockDown browser loads, go to the Cal Baptist Blackboard site.
• You will need your Cal Baptist login info- probably your student ID, and you'll need to know the password you use to login to Blackboard.

System Requirements:

• Chrome books do not work with Respondus. iPads do work with Respondus 
• Mac Users: You'll need to upgrade to at least macOS 10.12 Sierra in order to use LockDown Browser on your Mac. If you get an error that says "digital signature invalid" it's because your system is older than 10.12.
