Summary Before you set up Respondus LockDown for one of your exams, the test must be deployed in the course. This article explains how to configure the Test Options page for exams that will be administered with Respondus LockDown Browser. |
Instructions
This article outlines the recommended Canvas settings for administering a Respondus Lockdown test in the classroom. These directions apply to Canvas' Classic Quizzes tool. |
Instructions
Start by creating the quiz with the Classic Quizzes tool, which has wider support. You can also use an existing Classic Quiz. The exam content does not need to be finalized at this time.
Navigate to the desired exam and click the Edit button in the top right-hand of the page to access the settings.
Change the Quiz Instructions text to include the following directions:
This exam must be taken with Respondus LockDown Browser. Please download it here: https://download.respondus.com/lockdown/download.php?id=497143110
...
Make the exam available to students - the setting to make an exam available should always be set to Yes. Otherwise, students will not be able to access the test.
...
Enable force completion - if the exam will be administered without proctoring, you should enable force completion to prevent students from being able to leave the exam and return to it later.
...
Set an exam timer (recommended) - turn on the auto-submit setting. This will end and grade the exam when the timer expires. These settings are recommended but not required.
...
Set the availability window - set the desired dates in the Display After and the Display Until fields. Set the desired times next to each one.
...
Do not set a password - leave the password field empty, and the checkbox disabled.
...
Apply extended time accommodations - If your exam is timed, remember to add extended time exceptions for any students who qualify.
...
Do not enable due date restriction - Do not enable the setting for restricting the exam after the due date. This setting will prevent some make-up and accommodated testers from being able to access the test. The availability window (Step 4) is sufficient for controlling students' access to the exam.

If you have not used Respondus Lockdown before, see this page for directions on how to take your exams with this tool: https://boisestate.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/LTS/pages/757137480/Taking+An+Exam+With+Respondus+LockDown+Browser
Set the exam timer as needed.
If you would like for students to be able to see question feedback, click the checkbox next to the option to allow students to see their responses. Consider restricting this to a one-time view after submission to prevent exam material from being shared outside of the testing environment. You can always change the availability of feedback and correct answers at a later time.
Set the availability window as needed. For exams administered in-class, it is recommended that you make the test available 5 minutes before class begins. It may help to also add 5 minutes to the availability deadlines.
If the exam will be administered in class, it is recommended that you set an access code (password) that you only share with students at the start of class. This is to prevent students from accessing the test at home. You should also change this password immediately after class, but not during the test.
Configure Lockdown Browser for this test - With the test settings configured, you can now enable Lockdown Browser for this exam from the Respondus Dashboard in your course. Step by step directions are available on this page.
