Feature Release: Chromebook Extension for Respondus LockDown Browser

Respondus Lockdown Browser & Monitor

Rutgers Canvas is pleased to announce the release of the Chromebook extension for Respondus Lockdown Browser.  Previously, increased integrity for Canvas quizzes and exams was only offered with Respondus Lockdown Browser for use on PC and Mac computers.  Now, students with Chromebooks may take a Canvas quiz or exam on their personal device using the Chromebook extension for Respondus Lockdown Browser.

While core security features are present, there are some known issues and limitations with the Chromebook Extension.  This may impact your exam questions because these limitations may affect your students’ ability to complete your exam.  Please review Rutgers Canvas documentation for more information.  Respondus is working to add more features in future releases.
