In partnership with Respondus, Eduphoria offers a newer, more secure way for students using Chromebooks to complete test-taking in a controlled environment: the Eduphoria LockDown Browser Chrome extension.
Note: Respondus no longer supports the Eduphoria LockDown Browser for Chromebooks app that operates in kiosk mode. To avoid future issues, Eduphoria recommends that districts install the Chrome extension as soon as possible. Kiosk mode will not receive patches or updates beyond May 2024 but will be available through December 2024.
If your district is used to operating the kiosk mode app, we’ve got you covered on the next steps to make the switch by Fall 2024.
What’s New?
We’ve added help guide documentation to assist district administrators in installing the Chrome extension to managed and student-owned Chromebooks:
What’s Improved?
We’ve updated our LockDown Browser FAQ, Chromebook student experience guide, allowlist documentation to include information about the new Chrome extension and more accessible language:
- LockDown Browser FAQ
- LockDown Browser for Chromebooks: The Student Experience
- LockDown Browser Allowlist Options
Additional Resources
Despite these new changes, our users won’t be left in the dark about the Chromebook kiosk app as their districts make the switch over. Harness our installation and troubleshooting guides when needed, and don’t forget to check out the Chromebook student experience article to confirm how students can access the app:
