anonymity - when checked, no information on who participated in the assessment, or from what workstations submissions were made is kept.
presentation - the assessment's questions may be offered all together on a single web page, or one-at-a-time requiring the user to click a next button to access the next question or a group-at-a-time, showing a custom number of questions on each web page generated by Test Pilot. Groups of questions are defined in step 3 of assessment authoring, choosing questions. feedback between questions - this option requires that the assessment be offered, one question-at-a-time or a group-at-a-time. When enabled, each time a user clicks the next button to advance to the next question(s), they will be shown a web page with an evaluation of the question(s) they just answered. Whether the participant is shown the correct answer or the question's custom feedback or both is controlled by the settings on the step #4 - submit actions page.
one way - this option requires that the assessment be offered, one question-at-a-time or a group-at-a-time. When enabled, the previous question button is not offered so as to prevent participants from changing their answer to a previously answered question.
sequencing - these options requires that the assessment be offered, one question-at-a-time or a group-at-a-time.
resumable -
branching - this option requires that the assessment be offered, one question-at-a-time. When enabled, participants are offered questions based upon their response to previous questions. That is, an adaptive selection of questions is presented to the user. You may establish the order of question progression as you author questions. Each possible question response can result in a potential branch to a new question.
numbering - have Test Pilot automatically number questions. Please note, that since Test Pilot has the ability to present questions in a random order, a given question number may not necessarily be associated with the same question on each participant's assessment. erase button - when enabled on an assessment whose questions are presented all together, this will hide the erase button normally generated at the bottom of the web page. Some participants may not read the button, clicking upon it, expecting their responses to be submitted. Removing the button prevents the disastrous results of such a mistake. warnings - when enabled, Test Pilot will issue a warning before submitting the participant's responses for evaluation. Some browsers, particularly Internet Explorer, attempt submission upon typing enter. Many participants type enter upon completing a text entry. If that happens before the participant has completed an assessment, unanswered questions could be inadvertently submitted. This option provides a warning to circumvent the potential for problems. background color - allows you to set the background color of the web pages generated by Test Pilot. Care should be made that the question text color is not the same as the background color.
color - allows you to set the color of the text on web pages generated by Test Pilot. Care should be made that the question text color is not the same as the background color. style - allows you to set the style (bold, italic, etc.) of the text on web pages generated by Test Pilot. size - allows you to set the size of the text on web pages generated by Test Pilot. The scale used is that of web page design ranging from 1 to 8 with 3 approximating normal sized text. More precise control is not universally available using web browser-based applications. font - allows you to set the font or type face of the text on web pages generated by Test Pilot. The font list is limited to those fonts typically available to most browsers operating under multiple operating systems.
sample - after updating, this will show a sample of your selections for text size, color, face and background color. background graphic - instead of a background color, you can use a background graphic for the web pages generated for the assessment. The entry should be the simple filename of a .gif or .jpg graphic file located in the same web server directory as your assessment's .tp3 file. You can type the filename or use the browse button to look at all such graphic files in the current directory to choose one. Help is Available! Please note that, at any time while you are editing an assessment, you can click upon the titles of the fields listed for your entries. If you do so, a pop-up window with an explanation of the items use and features will be shown. Saving your Changes - Don't Forget to Update It should be noted that on the editing panels, you will see one or more Update buttons. Whenever you adjust a setting or make changes to any item, you must click an update button to record the changes. You may make multiple changes and then click Update, but if you fail to click the update button, your changes may not be recorded. |
