The Testmoz introductory video covers 80% of Testmoz in a few minutes, including test settings, question pools, importing questions from a file, distributing the test and collecting and emailing results.
(the video is a little out-of-date, but everything mostly works the same way)
Topics: filtering/searching, archiving, tagging, updating scores, emailing the results and more.
Topics: Organizing your quizzes with tags, filtering/searching, archiving, updating test settings in bulk.
Topics: The publish page, automatic test result tagging, URL aliases.
No. You can check your browser history for it.
Go to your test URL, click the "Admin" tab, and enter your password.
No. There is no reliable way to determine that you are the real owner, and not a malicious user trying to hijack the test.
If you paid for an account, you can reset your account password here.
Yes. Use the "Add Existing Test" link on the account menu.
If you pay for a membership, you can. Click the little image icon on the Testmoz text editor. If you don't pay for a membership, you can only use images that are already online.
If your audio or video file is hosted on a third party website (like YouTube), and it provides HTML embed code, you can click the </> button on Testmoz's text editor, and paste in the embed code.
If you pay for a membership, you can. Click the little document icon on the Testmoz text editor (to the right of the image icon).
On the Publish page, use the "Print/Export" box (it's on the right side). You can change the options if you want the answers to be displayed on the printout.
Go to the results page. Check the checkbox next to the results you want to print. Then choose "Print" from the menu at the bottom of the screen.
Go to the Publish page for your test, and on the right side in the "Print/Export" box, click the CSV or QTI links.
Type tags:archived into the search box. Or click on the search box, and then click on the archive link in the little popup.
Type tags:trash into the search box. Or click on the search box, and then click on the trash link in the little popup. Deleted items will be preserved for at 30 days (and then permanently deleted after that)
Type tags:trash into the search box. Or click on the search box, and then click on the trash link in the little popup. Check the items you want to restore, and click "Restore" at the bottom of the page.
On the test's dashboard, click the "Share" box under "Test Utilities". You can share multiple tests at one time by going to the Tests Dashboard. Then check the tests you want to share, and click "Share" at the bottom of the page.
Testmoz doesn't have multi-user accounts. You can share a copy of the test with a co-worker (see above). To share the results, you have a few options: 1) You can email them (on the results page) 2) You can setup another notification email address at the bottom of your test settings page (a comma separated list of emails is accepted in that field). Then go to your account settings page, and enable the option to include the test results in the body of the email. 3) Give the other person your account credentials (this is not recommended for security reasons)
No. But you can create a Question Group, and place multiple fill in the blank questions within it.
The Testmoz student interface won't crash a web browser. It is bare-bones HTML. Many web pages are full of ads and multimedia, which can crash a web browser. The crash would have been caused by a different tab (or program) running on the student's computer. Testmoz will remember their answers if they resume their test using the same browser.
This happens because you have a time limit on the test. The student took the test, left it (without submitting), and re-started the test after the time limit. Testmoz (rightly) saw that time was up, and submitted the test.
It's not. Your student is noticing an artifact of the normalization process. When the student takes a test, the choices on a matching question are shuffled (according to the test and question settings). When the student reviews the test (after submitting it), Testmoz unshuffles (or normalizes) the entire test. This changes the numbers associated with matching options, but the matched pairs are preserved. This normalization process makes it easy for you or the student to compare a test with others.
Testmoz will only accept a completely filled out test. Your web browser is showing an indication next to the question you didn't fill out (which you aren't noticing).
As a student fills out the test, Testmoz saves the answer choice to temporary browser storage. So if their browser crashes (or they leave the test) when they return their answers are re-selected.
After a student successfully submits the test, Testmoz saves their results to its database. The student's web browser will reset to a clean slate so the next person who takes the test (on that same computer) won't see the previous student's answers.
Commonly, you (the test administrator) will preview the test, and select some answers without submitting the test. When you view the test again, you get confused because some answers are selected. It's just your browser restoring the answers from your previous session. Answers will not be pre-selected when your students take the test from their own devices.
On your Tests Dashboard, check the tests you want to combine, and click "Merge" at the bottom of the screen.
Insert a graded question like normal, but in the points box, prefix the point value with a plus sign.
No, that is not possible. As you can imagine, if it was possible for a website to do that, it would be incredibly annoying to browse the web because nearly every website would abuse it to keep you on their site!
There are specialty "proctoring" browsers (glorified spyware) that allow you to lock things down more. But the student has to download and install it. I'm not very familiar with them myself, so I can't recommend one in particular. But I strongly recommend against using Proctorio.
No.
The only supported way of taking a test on Testmoz is via the URL on the Publish page. You can try your luck at embedding it within an iframe, but you're on your own with any technical issues you run into.
Go to the questions page for your test, and check the correct answer choice(s) (for choice questions), or update the acceptable responses (for fill-in-the-blank), etc. Then go to the results page for the test. Select the results you want to regrade (you can shift-click to select a range of responses). Then click the "Re-grade" button at the bottom of the page.
If possible, Testmoz will automatically figure out how to re-score all the results. You can click a button to apply all score increasing (and/or decreasing) corrections. If Testmoz cannot automatically re-score, you have to update the scores one-by-one (but at least you can do it all on one page).
On the Questions page, at the bottom of the page, click "Other", and then click the "import" option. Download the sample template, and you can construct your own import based on it. Your import file must EXACTLY match the format specified in the template file.
Arbitrary uploads of Word documents, PDFs or other file types is not supported. Using AI/machine learning to translate an arbitrary document into a set of questions/answers (and associated metadata) is a multi-million dollar project (which is why you don't find that feature in Testmoz, or any other product).
These are things Testmoz does not have or can't do.
