Then have the students log in to Unify and begin the test.
NOTE: Once the student has logged into the test they can’t click ANYWHERE outside the test (they can’t adjust the volume on the computer, they can’t change any options in Snap and Read, they can’t use the desktop version of Snap and Read, etc.) clicking outside of Unify will lock their test.
The student can click on the Unify test page then click the speaker icon in the upper right to start and stop reading.
