Take locked-down tests
When your instructor locks down a test or quiz, you cannot open other browser windows or applications while doing the assignment.
For example, when taking a test or quiz using LockDown Browser, you cannot:
- Navigate away from the assignment.
- Open your device's calculator.
The Pearson LockDown Browser is available for PC, Mac, or Chromebook. The LockDown Browser cannot be used with mobile devices.
Take a locked-down test or quiz
- Open the test or quiz from your Course Home page or the Homework
and Tests page.
- Install LockDown Browser, if necessary.
- If the test or quiz includes automated proctoring, install the proctoring application, if necessary, and set up monitoring.
- Take the test or quiz, as usual.
If available, the calculator icon
in the toolbar opens LockDown Browser's built-in calculator.
- After you submit your test or quiz, a message tells you that your locked-down session has ended. Select OK to continue.
