Assessments
In the assessments area of the control panel, you can create tests by clicking either "Test Manager" or "Pool Manager" (the Pool Manager is preferable if you wish to develop a pool of questions you can pull from and potentially randomize for your tests).
Create a test using the Test Manager or Pool Manager:
1. Click "Test Manager" or "Pool Manager" in the "Assessment" section of the Control Panel.
2. Click "Add Test" or "Add Pool"
3. Give your test a name, a description, and provide instructions for the students using the "Test Info" screen.
4. From the "Test Canvas" screen, click on "Creation Settings".
5. Select the required settings from the "Creation Settings" shown.
6. Click Submit.
7. On the test canvas, using the drop down box, select the appropriate question format (e.g. multiple choice, true or false, multiple answer, essay etc.) and click go.
8. Type or cut and paste the questions and answers, or make your selection from previous assignments or pools; insert math and science notation if needed.
9. Hit submit
10. Add additional questions and answers if desired.
11. Finally select the content area in which you would like your assessment to appear:
Return to the Control Panel and click on the content area in which you would like the test to appear. In this example we clicked on "Assignments" so that the test appears in the assignments content area.
12. Once inside Assignments click on "+ Test"
13. From the Add Test screen you can create a new test or select the test you just created and click submit
14. Finally modify the test options to make the test available by clicking on Modify in the Assignments screen.
15. Next click Modify the Test Options on the "Modify Test" screen.
16. From the "Test Options" screen you can change the test information, test availability, feedback and presentation.
