Read & Write Toolbar Restriction for Quizzes & Tests

Modified on: Tue, Mar 7 2023 12:43 PM

What to do when students have figured out that they can use R&W to define terms, especially problematic on Language Arts vocabulary tests. 


Question: We have run into a problem with Google Form Quizzes/Tests. Students have figured out that they can use R&W to define terms, especially problematic on Language Arts vocabulary tests. Is there a way to temporarily disable the app or another workaround that you can think of?


datadesk logoAnswer: We actually have a few ways the toolbar can be restricted. First would be if the users are attached to a Google Classroom - that teacher can usedatadesk.texthelp.com in order to limit that user's features for a set period of time, after which the toolbar will revert.

Alternatively, you can limit students in an entire OU by pushing a configuration file through the Admin Console. Information for how you can do this can be found here:
