Berkeley moves to 'lock down' students' browsers to prevent cheating

Author(s) : Marie Rose Corkery

Notes :

The University of California-Berkeley trusts its professors to design evaluation methods that balance concerns with the imperative of academic integrity during the pandemic. In the meantime, to ensure that students do not cheat during exams, a "browser lock" method will be introduced. This will prevent students from switching from one window or tab to another while taking online tests.
