Respondus Lockdown Browser + Webcam

Exam 1 requires Respondus LockDown Browser (LDB), a university-recommended, custom web browser that locks down thetesting environment in eLC for security purposes. Exam 1 also utilizes Respondus Monitor, a feature of LBD that requires students to use a webcam and microphone. After the exam is complete, your instructor will be provided with a report generated by Respondus Monitor in effort to ensure adherence to Academic Honesty and to maintain exam integrity. LDB must be installed on the computer that you use to take Exam 1.

Important

If needed, you may request to borrow a laptop (with webcam) online from the Miller Learning Center through the MLC Technology Lending Program. When making your request, be sure to let them know that you need it to work with Respondus LockDown Browser and Respondus Monitor.

Material Covered

Anything covered in readings, DDQs, and homework assignments through TUE 2021-09-21 is fair game for the exam.

Note

The required readings for each module are listed on each module page. If a reading isn’t from one of the textbooks, then a direct link to the reading is provided using a UGA Library Link so that you can access it for free using your MyID.

Format

The exam is expected to have 30 questions. Each question is multiple-select with \(n\) choices and between \(1\) and \(n-1\) correct answers \((2 \leq n)\). Partial credit can be earned.
