F4: Quizzes and Tests Using the Safe Exam Browser If enabled, Moodle can force students to use the Safe Exam Browser (SEB) to take a Moodle quiz. This browser will restrict them from opening other browser tabs or programs on their quiz-taking device while completing the quiz. It will not restrict them from using other devices (like their phone) while taking the quiz.  Students must download and install the SEB on their device in order for it to work. The SEB is compatible with current versions of Windows, macOS, and iOS. It is not compatible with Chromebooks. The SEB is also available on the computers outside of the Biology lab.  Setting Up a Quiz to use SEB Begin by setting up a quiz like you normally would.  In the quiz  Settings , expand the section with the heading  Safe Exam Browser .

They only have to download and install the SEB for the first Moodle quiz they take using the SEB, even if it's not for your course. Students will click here to launch the SEB and start their quiz.  Students do not need to use the  Download configuration option. Instructors can download the configuration file to use for future quizzes if desired. It will not harm anything if a student accidentally downloads it. This button takes students back to the course home page.   After Launching the SEB Note: if a student has not downloaded the Safe Exam Browser, they'll need to do that before they can launch it. When students click  Launch Safe Exam Browser,  they'll likely first get a pop-up asking if it's ok for their computer to open the SEB app. Students need to click Open Safe Exam Browser or whatever is the affirmative choice. As the SEB launches, it will look for applications that cannot be running while SEB is running. Zoom is one such application. The SEB will then try to close those applications. Students may have to click to allow the applications to close. The SEB window will open with the familiar Moodle login screen. Students will log in with their MLC username and password. After logging in, students will be taken right to the quiz page where they can start the quiz.  When students have submitted their quiz, they can close the SEB and return to their normal browser by clicking the power icon in the bottom right corner of the screen.   The SEB will try to relaunch the applications that it closed. Students can continue in Moodle as normal.     Adding a Google Form to Moodle 1. Create your Google Form or Google Forms Quiz 2.
