Other Instructional Tools


In addition to the other main instructional technologies (i.e., Brightspace, Collaborate, Panopto, and Teams), 麻豆社 provides other tools that may be helpful for your teaching. This includes tools for originality/plagiarism checking (Ouriginal), exam proctoring (Respondus), student response systems (Top Hat), content and activity building (SoftChalk, Campus Pack), and accessibility (ReadSpeaker).聽

Respondus LockDown Browser and Respondus Monitor (Exam proctoring)

LockDown Browser is a custom browser that locks down the testing environment within Brightspace to prevent students from using additional resources during the testing period.

Respondus Monitor builds upon the power of LockDown Browser, using a student鈥檚 webcam and video analytics to prevent cheating during non-proctored exams.
