Q: The deal breaker for us is the availability of e-textbooks. Many of our publishers have plug-ins or other software component that must be downloaded to use their content. Similarly, the Respondus Lockdown browser cannot be used.
A: Many software & e-textbook publishers are realizing that Chromebooks are the #1 device with iPads as the #2 device in EDU. Proprietary plug-ins don't work on the #1 or #2 device! Adobe Flash does work on Chromebooks. Instead of using "Lockdown Browser", policies can be configured to lock down Chromebooks for testing.
