The Collegiate Live By Breegan Petruska As colleges across the country have resorted to online and virtual teaching, many of these schools have turned to a new browser to help prevent students from cheating. The Lockdown Browser gains access to students’ video and audio on their computer to record them during tests. Before accessing the test, there are a number of steps the student must take inside of the browser in order to take their test. They have to be in a quiet room where no one else is present. The student must show their surrounding environment to prove that there are no phones, papers, books, etc. They must record a practice video, showing their face in a box on the screen, that will be monitored during the test, and they must show their ID to the camera to show that they are who they say they are.
