Creating Advanced Tests
Overview
Creating advanced tests gives you more control over the layout of the
test answer sheet, and offers the following additional functionality over
basic tests:
- Creating generic test sheets with bubble in student ID grids
- Dividing multiple choice questions into sections (e.g., True-False,
Multiple Choice, etc.)
- Adding math sections
- Customizing subjective areas to include write-in boxes, no bubbles
(grade on the fly), lines and other formatting
- Customizing the answer sheet footer
Tests can have a maximum of 360 total questions, including a maximum
of 50 math and 50 subjective questions. Subjective questions cannot exceed
25 pages in total.
To create advanced tests
From the My Classes
screen click the desired class.
- From the left Options menu,
click Advanced Test.
- Enter a Test Name.
To set up form settings
You can set basic form level settings to determine how certain question
types fit on the page.
- Click Form
Settings from the left menu.
- Choose a Multiple
Choice Section Layout. Determine multiple choice question
placement based on your page size:
- Default: left
alignment.
- Justify: spreads
the questions evenly across the page.
- Center: places
the question section in the center of the page.
- Choose Multiple
Choice Section Scaling. Fit-Width
fits the questions to the width of the page. Fit-Height
fits the questions to the height of the page. These settings help
determine how many questions fit per page.
- Choose a Subjective
Section Layout. When placing subjective questions on the page,
you can fit them vertically or horizontally. Vertical
(Top-Down) means questions will go one after the other down
the page. Horizontal (Left-Right)
means that questions will go across the page first, then down. In
this case questions 1 and 2 would be across from each other, and question
3 would start on the next row.
- Determine whether to Dock
all subjective questions to the bottom of the page. This setting
makes sure that the subjective questions are always at the bottom
of the page, regardless of other question types on the page.
