I have created a online examination web application. I want the users to avoid using browsers (for checking answers in Google).
How should I achieve this? Shall we have the full screen mode, even though I want to restrict minimizing the window or using Ctrl+Tab?
Is it possible?
Secure Browser. Secure Browser Technology prevents users from opening any other window while the online examination process is going on.
Implementing online exam proctoring software. Verifying and monitoring student behavior with a webcam. Providing explicit test rules. Giving students clear instructions.
There is a very simple solution: Set a time limit. Any student who has to browse the web for an answer will lose a lot of time compared to the ones who know the answer immediately.
Another solution: Don't care. It's not your job to make sure that students don't know about the Internet. Your job is to make sure they know their stuff when they start a job. So if a student is not able to memorize something but can look it up on Google? Why not? I'd award her extra points for working smarter rather than harder.
Speaking as a browser user, I hope it's not possible, since it implies that any web site could do the same thing, thus taking control of my computer away from me, against my will.
