In order for Otus to function correctly, there are certain URLs that should be added to your district's whitelist. If something doesn't seem to be functioning as it should, you may want to check your school site's web filter/firewall (such as Securely) for potentially blocked URLs.
The URLs that MUST be allowed by your firewall include:
*.otus.com
*.cloudfront.net
google-analytics.com
learnosity.com
cdn.fluence.net
pro.fontawesome.com
intercom.com
widget.intercom.io
