The College is no longer using Respondus as our test proctoring software. As a result, the Lockdown Browser navigation tab has been removed from Canvas. If there is an imported or copied course with quizzes that are still using Respondus, students might encounter an issue where the test will prompt them to use Respondus, even if Verity is enabled.
This issue can be fixed by creating a new quiz from a question bank. The following instructions will walk through exporting quizzes, importing them as a question bank, and creating a new quiz using a question bank. If you already have a question bank, or would like to check if you have one, skip to section 3.
