  • Default: After Submission and Score per Question

  • The default settings shown below will result in students seeing each test question and the score obtained for that question as soon as they submit their test, and then afterwards using My Grades.
    Score per question view.

    Note

    Unchecking the Score per Question box will limit score results to total test score, but to prevent students from seeing the total test score, you will need to also set the test column in the Grade Center to Hide from Users.


  • Options:

    • When

      Expand

      You must make a selection. Set when appropriate test results and feedback are shown to students:

      • After Submission: This option is the default.
      • One-time View: After students submit their tests or surveys, the selected results and feedback options are in effect for students to view ONCE. However, students can always view the scores they earned unless you hide the Grade Center column from students. Immediately after a student navigates away from the test or survey, any other results and feedback are restricted. You can change the setting or add another rule for a second viewing. A second rule is not combined with the one-time view rule but is applied separately.
      • On Specific Date: View results and feedback after the selected date and time.
      • After Due Date
      • After Availability and End Date
      • After Attempts are graded: After all students submit the test or survey, and all attempts are graded, results and feedback are made available to students. If one or more students don't submit an attempt, you must assign a grade of 0 so that all students can view the chosen results and feedback.


    • Score per Question

      Expand

      Show the score earned for each test question. This option is a default for tests only. Clear the check box if you don't want to show scores for individual questions.


    • Answers

      Expand

      You can allow students to see information about their answers:

      • All Answers: Show all answer options.
      • Correct: Show the correct answers-tests only.
      • Submitted: Show all of a student's submitted answers.

      Example 1: Show more feedback

      When students access their tests, they see their overall scores, each question's score, and all answer options. They see their submitted answers marked as correct or incorrect, and any feedback provided.

      Example 2: Show less feedback to discourage cheating

      If students take a test at different times, you can make a limited amount of feedback available until all students submit the test.

      For the first rule, select After Submission in the first menu and clear the check box for Score per Question. Make no other selections. After they submit their tests, students can only see their overall test scores.

      For the second rule, select After Due Date and select options to show more results and feedback. You can create an announcement to notify students that additional feedback is available to view.


    • Feedback

      Expand

      Show instructor-generated feedback for each question. This option appears for tests only.


    • Show Incorrect Questions

      Expand

      Show the questions a student answered incorrectly or partially incorrectly. This option appears for tests only. You might show incorrect questions and allow multiple attempts so that students can focus their studying on those areas.

Warning

This option may result in none of the students seeing the test results if anyone has not taken the test.

Test Presentation

  • Default: All at Once
  • Recommended: Weigh the pros and cons of each option to determine which setting is most appropriate for your needs. 
    Test presentations options
    • All at Once: Easier navigation and faster, but using scroll wheel has potential to change answers. Usually less complications overall.

    • One at a Time: Moving to next question saves answer and makes question copy/print less likely, but is slower and students may not be familiar with navigation between questions. This results in behaviors (multiple clicks on next or use of browser back button) which can cause test freezing and other problems.

    • Randomize Questions: Easy way to randomize order for questions added individually to test, but should not be used with tests where the order of question presentation is important.

    • Prohibit Backtracking: Potential for additional problems when using “one at a time”. Generally not recommended.
