 Assesment |
Here is the procedure for creating tests in eFront:
- From the main control panel of professor we select "Tests"
- We move to "Questions" tab and create a number of questions. eFront supports the following types of questions: open answer, multiple choices-single correct answer, multiple choices-many correct answers, match, true/false, empty spaces.
 Creating questions |
- From "Tests" tab we create a new test and we set its characteristics.In the tab "Mastery score" we must define the score which is the minimum expected,in order for the test to be considered as passed by the student.
 Mastery score |
When we are done defining the test's characteristics, we have to save it and then continue by selecting the questions.
 Save test |
A new tab appears with the name "Test questions". This is the place where we choose the questions that will be included in the specific test.
 Select test questions |
At the top of this tab, there are two options, "Randomize questions" and "Random pool test".
 Random tests |
The first one, allows you to randomize the questions from the selected ones that will be used in the test, while the second, allows you to create random test, by defining the number of questions that will be used.
