'''Remember that LockDown Browser will prevent you from accessing other websites or applications; you will be unable to exit the test until all questions are completed and submitted.'''

			==Chromebook Tips and Support==
			A "stall" or "freeze" at the Blackboard Learn "Enter Password: {test_name}" web page is commonly due to a corrupted or incorrect navigation to begin the exam.

			It can also occur if the instructor did not check the LockDown Browser Dashboard prior to students started writing the exam.

			Prior to the exam, we recommend students do a power down restart of the computer then close down any apps that re-opened at login. Establish a wired Ethernet connection if feasible, otherwise try to be as close as possible to the wireless access point or router.

			In general, for Blackboard Learn with "manual launch", it is important for students to close all standard browsers, start LockDown Browser only, log into Blackboard Learn, wait until the Blackboard Learn home page fully loads (no spinning circle in the browser tab), navigate to the course, wait until the course home page fully loads (no spinning circle in the browser tab), then go to the content area to start the direct link to the exam with "-Requires Respondus LockDown Browser" in the test title. Students should not use any "shortcut" or "notifications link" in the Blackboard Learn home page or course home page.

			It is important for students with Chromebooks to close down all other apps and browser sessions, start only the Chrome browser with only one browser tab, log into Blackboard Learn, wait until the Blackboard Learn home page fully loads, navigate to the course, wait until the course home page fully loads, then go to the content area to start the direct link to the exam with "-Requires Respondus LockDown Browser" in the test title. Students should not use any "shortcut" or "notifications link" in the Blackboard Learn home page or course home page.

			If the deadline for an exam is near, the student should locate another computer, Mac, Windows, Chromebook, with LockDown Browser, possibly on an alternate network. There is also LockDown Browser for iPad, if allowed by the instructor.
