Of course, Test Pilot automatically scores questions. However, for essay questions requiring your valuable judgement in evaluation, or for times when you would like to alter an automatically generated point award, these are the facilities for online manual scoring.

download a spreadsheet of scores

If you click on the Download Scores link, a tab delimited file is generated with each line showing a user id, score and percentage. If your browser is configured to open your spreadsheet program with documents with a MIME type of application/excel, the spreadsheet will automatically open.

Powerful Feature
With this option, you can easily download a list of scores which you can use to cut and paste, merge into an electronic gradebook or perform some statistical analysis on the scores. This allows Test Pilot assessments to fit into any computer-based scoring environment.

e-mail scores to participants

If you have entered e-mail addresses into the user list of participants permitted to access the assessment and you have configured Test Pilot's web server extension with the name of a valid Internet mail server, the E-Mail Scores button will be presented to allow you to automatically generate e-mail messages to each participant indicating their score. E-mailing functions require special configuration and security permissions that may not be available at all installations.
