To set up an assessment in MyClasses to require students to use LDB:

    2. Select Modify Settings from the menu

  5. Select Require Respondus Lockdown Browser for this exam. Optionally you may enter a test password that students must enter to start the test in LDB.

  6. Select the option Require LDB to view feedback + results to restrict students from printing test results.

  7. Click Save and Close.

  8. The test is now set to require LDB and the text “Requires Respondus LockDown Browser” will be added to the assessment title.

What if a student uses a browser other than the LDB?

If the settings for a test require that LDB be used, it cannot be accessed with a standard browser. If the student attempts to take the test using a standard browser (Firefox, Chrome, Safari. etc.…) the student will be prompted with a warning “This quiz requires Lockdown Browser. Please launch Respondus LockDown Browser to take the quiz or view your quiz results.”
