How can I use LockDown Browser in teaching?

  • opening other applications
  • going to another URL
  • printing
  • using print screen, copy or paste
  • using any right-click functions

• Preventing the above actions minimizes the risks that students will use unauthorized resources while taking a quiz and/or capturing text information to share with others.
