The Fully Exam Kiosk is a secure browser designed specifically for conducting online exams on Android devices. It locks down the device during an exam, allowing students to only access the designated quiz website and its features. This prevents students from opening other applications, websites, or using device features that could compromise exam integrity. The kiosk mode activates when the exam starts, and students must have their login credentials ready if required by the exam website. Additionally, the app can be used with school-provided devices or students' personal Android devices (BYOD). If any issues occur during use, users are encouraged to send a screenshot and a brief description to the support email for assistance.
For students, the process involves obtaining an exam file or link from their teacher, which can then be opened within the Fully Exam Kiosk app. Once the exam is launched, students are prompted to grant certain permissions, such as "show on top" and "usage data," to ensure the kiosk functions correctly. To exit the kiosk mode, students can use a quit link, a special password in case of emergencies, or reboot their device. It is recommended to keep the device's Android Webview updated for optimal browsing performance. The app may require Device Administrator permissions for some features, which must be revoked before uninstalling the app.
Teachers have multiple options to set up exams with the Fully Exam Kiosk. For Moodle, they need to create a quiz, enable the Safe Exam Browser requirement, and configure the exam, then download the configuration file (.seb) which can be imported into the Fully Exam Kiosk platform. The platform generates a .fek file or permalink that can be shared with students. For other LMS platforms that support SEB, teachers can create a new exam configuration on the Fully Kiosk website, obtain the .fek file or permalink, and integrate the key into their LMS. Teachers are advised to keep the exam URL secret to prevent students from bypassing the lockdown and accessing other websites. All users are encouraged to provide feedback to improve the kiosk experience.
Overall, Fully Exam Kiosk offers a comprehensive solution for secure online assessments on Android devices, compatible with multiple LMS systems, and providing a straightforward setup for educators. Its main purpose is to ensure exam integrity by controlling device access during tests, with simple procedures for both students and teachers to operate the system effectively. The platform also emphasizes the importance of keeping exam URLs confidential to maintain security and fairness throughout the examination process. Support and feedback channels are available via email for users needing assistance or wishing to share their experience.
