Directions for On-line Portion of the Final Exam
1) Where is the practice exam?
At the bottom of this page
2) Logging in
For your practice exam, you will use your regular account. On the day of the exam, the practice link will be replaced with the actual final exam. You have a separate account for your final. You will not be able to access your regular account or your practice test results during the exam period. When the final closes, I will give you a password to get back into your usual account. The exams close when the scheduled time of your exam closes.
3) Passcode
After you login, you will be asked for a "secret word." This passcode will be posted on the web when the exam opens. This will be announced in class.
4) How long and how many times do I have to take it?
You can log in up to two times.
ONE BIG TIP: If the screen says that the page can't be displayed or the URL is currently unavailable, your computer is running up against a busy server. DO NOT X OUT. Just hit refresh, retry, and/or back. If you X out, you have wasted a login.
5) Can I skip questions and rethink questions I have already answered just like a regular Scantron test?
Yes, you can. But just be careful about watching your time.
6) What kind of feedback can I expect when I take the test?
The computer will give you a score only. Remember, this score is only for the 100 points of the multiple choice online test. The on-line portion of the test is worth 100 points. The in-class portions are worth 150 points. All of the grades will be combined for your overall final exam grade.
example: online portion: 88/100
in-class portion: 112/150
overall grade: 200/250 = 80 FINAL EXAM GRADE
7) Can I use materials from this class while I am taking the on-line portion of the test?
No.
8) Why can't I print or save a screen shot of the test?
Those features have been disabled.
