Control Panel-Course Tools-Tests, Survey, and Pools
Instructors use Tests and Surveys to assess knowledge, measure progress, and gather information from Students.
Test
Tests are created to check the knowledge and skill level of users enrolled in the Course. The Instructor can assign point values to each question on exams or quizzes. When a Student completes a Test it is automatically graded and the results are recorded in the Grade Center. Questions that require manual grading are marked in the Grade Center and can be graded later.
