On the Assessment Manager page, you can make tests and surveys available or unavailable.
To make a test or survey available:
Click the course title on the My CourseCompass page.
Click Control Panel from the Course Home page.
Click Assessment Manager under Assessment.
Select a test or survey, and click Set Availability.
Under Assessment Availability Information, click Yes to the question Make Assessment Available?
Note: The screen refreshes with two additional options under Assessment Availability Information. Depending on the speed of your Internet connection, this screen refresh may take a few moments.
Indicate whether you want CourseCompass to display an announcement about the newly available test or survey. Also, select a content area in which you want to add a link to the test or survey.
Note: You cannot move tests or surveys between content areas. If you want to move the test or survey later, you must make it unavailable, thereby losing any grade statistics associated with it.
(Optional) Indicate a specific time frame in which students can see the link to the test (as well as the announcement, if you selected that option). Do one, both, or neither of the following:
Click the Display After checkbox, and select the date and time at which you want students to see the test information.
Click the Display Until checkbox, and select the date and time at which you want the test to be hidden from students. At that point, CourseCompass makes the test unavailable again.
Note: If you do not select either of these options, the test and announcement will be immediately visible to students, with no specified time limit. Want more details about assessment visibility?
Under Options:
Select any of three options—Show detailed results, Reveal correct answer, or Feedback enabled—to determine how much information students will see after they complete an assessment. Students will always see their final result in terms of the number of points they received out of the total available.
Indicate whether students can take the test or survey multiple times.
Set a time limit for the test and set a password, if desired.
Notes: To review how these options affect what a student sees, preview the test. When you set the availability of a TestGen test, you do not see these test-taking options. To set options for a TestGen test, modify it.
Click Submit.
Note: Click Cancel to return to the Assessment Builder without making the test or survey available.
To make a test unavailable, follow steps 1-4 of this procedure, select No under Assessment Availability Information, click OK at the prompt, click Submit, and click OK again at the prompt.
IMPORTANT: If you make an available test unavailable, you will lose any grade statistics associated with it.
