Secure Browser Preference
How do I get to this page?
- Log in to Renaissance.
- On the Home page, select your name in the upper-right corner. In the drop-down list, select Edit Preferences.

- On the Preferences page, select Secure Browser in the District Preferences section of the page.

Do not set this preference to require the secure browser until the browser has been installed on all computers that will be used for testing. Once the preference is set to require the secure browser, students will not be able to take an assessment on a computer that does not have the browser installed.
This setting of this preference affects all Star Early Literacy, Star Early Literacy Spanish, Star Math, Star Math Spanish, Star Reading, and Star Reading Spanish assessments—it does not apply to Star CBM or Star Custom.

After you select Secure Browser on the Preferences page, you will see your schools and the current setting of the preference at each school
. Select Require
to require a school to use the Secure Browser for Star assessments; remove the check mark if you don't want to require a school to use the Secure Browser.

Select Save Changes

Select Back at the top of the page
to return to the Preferences page.
Once the Secure Browser Preference has been enabled, notify the IT department for your school district so they can begin installing the browser on the appropriate computers and let teachers know they should begin using the browser for their Star assessments.
