How do I enable or download the lock down browser in order to take quizzes and exams? Is there a specific app to download onto the iPad?
Hi @CorrineRaybuck ...
I *think* the way this still works is that your instructor would give you a unique URL to download the Lockdown Browser to your computer. Then, you would use that installed browser to log in to Canvas to take your quiz/test/exam. I found this information on Respondus' website:
LockDown Browser - Respondus
(Check out the video by clicking on the blue "Watch The Overview Video".)

For Apple Devices, Respondus has an app available: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/lockdown-browser/id659101775 You would use this browser to sign into Canvas, and then start your quiz. Once the quiz starts, there are very few features available. Then, once complete, you can return to Safari or Chrome.

We're using pacing to avoid manually dating regular assignments each quarter, but the dates I see are based on when the course was instantiated, while students see dates based on when they were added to the course by [backend software I don't know anything about, presumably]. If I set…
Has anyone else had issues with an influx of duplicate users in Canvas? Ours is currently in the form of an email that already exists, becoming a new user - and not automatically merging with the user ID with the same email that also is linked to our SIS ID correctly as well. For example, user 1 is xyz@gmail.com without a…
Canvas Portfolios provide a powerful platform for students to document their learning journey, reflect on their progress, and showcase competencies. However, in programs where multiple educators are involved in assessment—such as team teaching, moderation, or competency-based evaluation—there are important questions about…
I wonder if others have had this response, but I think it is troubling messaging for students that, no matter how well they may do on an assignment, they are given a signal that anything below a perfect score should be marked/denoted with a red color, as if those grades are poor, or even lesser. I think it is harmful for…
