If you use Blackboard®, you can prevent cheating by using Respondus®
LockDown Browser® or Respondus Monitor®. Create a Blackboard test
that requires Respondus and use it to link to MindTap. Your students will continue to be monitored by Respondus while they complete their exam in MindTap.
Note While Cengage supports our learning platform
integrations with several Learning Management Systems, proctoring solutions are
third party services that we do not directly support. The LMS and proctoring
solution versions we have tested might not be the same versions you use. For this
reason, your process and results might vary and Cengage cannot
guarantee support for any third party proctoring service.
This procedure is for Blackboard courses with the Original Course View.
Students should download Respondus LockDown Browser ahead of time,
or they will be prompted to do so when they open their assignment.
You must first create a password protected exam in MindTap, and add a link to your exam in Blackboard.

test.
