This transcript was checked against the recording and lightly edited only to remove verbal stumbles.

1. 0:00Jacob introduces Safe Online Exam as a Canvas tool that helps proctors and teachers give online assessments while keeping students limited to approved resources.
2. 0:27He opens a normal Canvas course to show what a student sees when taking a protected quiz. The demonstration uses macOS, and the same workflow is available on Windows.
3. 0:42The student selects Take the Quiz, accepts the system prompt, and Safe Exam Browser launches with the assessment configuration.
4. 0:53Safe Online Exam supplies the Canvas access code inside the browser session. The student never sees the code, which remains stored on the server.
5. 1:02The assessment behaves like a normal Canvas quiz and supports its usual question types. When the student tries to navigate to an unapproved resource, Safe Exam Browser blocks the request.
6. 1:32After the student submits the assessment, the approved exit flow closes Safe Exam Browser.
7. 1:41The instructor opens Safe Online Exam from Canvas course navigation. The workspace lists both Classic Quizzes and New Quizzes, which can be managed through the same workflow.
8. 2:06The instructor enables Safe Exam Browser for a New Quiz with one action, then opens its settings for more control.
9. 2:13Assessment settings include an optional start password, the controlled quit password, and exam tools that provide specific resources without opening the full browser or computer.
10. 2:40The instructor creates a tool named Reference Sheet, assigns its URL, saves the configuration, and returns to the student view.
11. 3:01The student launches the configured quiz through Safe Exam Browser again using the same Canvas flow.
12. 3:31An Exam Tools window now lists the resource the instructor approved. The student can move, resize, or return the window to its starting position.
13. 3:46The reference sheet opens at the approved address. Attempts to navigate elsewhere are blocked, while the student can close the resource or keep it beside the quiz.
14. 4:15Behind the assessment windows, the desktop is blank. The student cannot reach normal menu bars, the Dock, or other applications.
15. 4:29If the student has a device problem or the instructor needs to change something, the instructor-controlled quit password can close the browser without forcing a quiz submission.
16. 4:58Jacob closes by summarizing how quickly an instructor can configure the assessment and how clearly a student can use it while remaining limited to approved resources.
