A: Sure, just email questhelp@austin.utexas.edu and let us know in what class(s) you'd like it dropped in (and with what name).  So you're empowered to make others needed throughout the rest of the semester, please note a few features when making a new assignment for it to be an online test.



Type: learning module


Start date (when you want students to have a live active link)


Due date (end window of access—note, the window can be much larger than the actual time of the exam due to a time feature*)


Convert numeric questions to multiple choice (optional--if you want enabled.  In learning modules this is not necessary—numeric free response is supported)


*optional time limit (minutes)-a timer will start once a student has progressed off the initial instructions slide and once the time has expired the student will not be able to submit any more answer or see the exam.


Test mode-check this. This means students will only have one entry per question and will not receive immediate feedback (ie if they got it right or wrong)


Overview and Class instructions-as you wish


Recommendations

Be overly explicit on what is and what is not permissible for this exam in the directions (ex: "This is an online-only exam. Close all other window and tabs before opening the exam, and do not use any unapproved external resources to complete this assessment. You may use a manual (non computer based) calculator. Once you start, you have up to XX minutes to complete the exam. Good luck!")
