Before you can enable LockDown Browser, your district must install Respondus LockDown Browser (Mastery Connect OEM version) on compatible student devices (MacOC, Windows, Chromebook, or iPad).
Notes:
- Previously, Chromebook users were required to use a kiosk app for secure testing. Although using the kiosk app is supported through January, 2025, LockDown Browser is now available for secure testing through a Google Chrome Extension.
- LockDown Browser requires Chromebook users to close all open tabs. Chromebook users who log in to Mastery Connect via Clever must close all open tabs, including the Clever tab.
Install Respondus LockDown Browser (Mastery Connect OEM Version)
Contact your CSM or submit a support ticket for the LockDown Browser documentation and to enable the LockDown Browser feature in your account.
Enable LockDown Browser for Assessments
The LockDown Browser tool can be enabled for benchmark assessments, Enhanced Accommodation (EA) formative assessments, and in trackers.
After the LockDown Browser is enabled for an assessment, it automatically launches when students take a test at student.masteryconnect.com, in the student portal, or through an LTI connection.
Note: LockDown Browser cannot be used for document-based assessments or non-EA assessments.
