Hi Paul,

You may also want to take a look at the Kioware browser. We use it in our test centers.

We're looking for any information others can share about their experiences/attempts to limit print/copy/navigation activity while completing Samigo assessments.  We are currently upgrading to 2.9 and would like to add this functionality to our environment.  Students currently have the ability to copy text, print screens, etc while taking assessments which isn't desirable in many situations.

We've briefly looked in to Respondus LockDown browser but it appears to carry some serious overhead for the student.  Students need to download/install the LockDown browser on their computer and use a specific browser to take the exam.  We're after something a little more seamless and invisible to the student.  I understand that it will be impossible to close every hole  but we'd like to make it a more difficult to cheat.

I would be interested to hear what other Sakai schools are doing in this area.

  *   Are there other approaches I'm not aware of?
  *   Are there other companies that provide a similar product to Respondus LockDown browser?
  *   Are my concerns about the negative student impacts of LockDown browser unfounded?

Thanks very much in advance for any light you can shed on this.
