In September, Respondus was disabled from Blackboard due to required updates from the vendor. We are pleased to share that the Respondus Lockdown Browser will be enabled in Blackboard on Monday, November 25th.
Humber ITS and Innovative Learning have been closely monitoring this situation with Respondus since the tool was temporarily disabled in September 2024. ITS can now verify that the required software updates meet Humber’s requirements and have cleared the tool to be re-activated in Blackboard.
We thank you for your patience and understanding of this situation. Once Respondus returns on November 25th, here are some helpful resources to set up Respondus for your assessments:
- Using the Respondus Lockdown Browser
- Enabling, Installing and Starting the Respondus Lockdown Browser in Blackboard for Instructors
- Enabling, Installing and Starting the Respondus Lockdown Browser for Students
- There are some alternatives to the Respondus Lockdown Browser here, as well!
