When a digital test is active, it is possible to monitor the progress of participants. On the taking page, you will see an overview of the participants that have not started the test yet, participants that are currently taking the test and participants that have submitted the test. You can also see the percentage of participants that have completed each exercise. If for some reason, a participant is not able to sign in to Ans to start their digital test, you can generate a one-time password token for them from the taking page.
If the monitor participants during a digital test feature is enabled, you can view when participants started the test, when they last updated the test and the location from where the test is being taken. Instructors and invigilators can also view the answers of the participants live and report incidents.
To monitor the progress of a digital test, follow the steps below.
- Click the domain School name in the menu on the left.
- Click label_important Courses in the menu at the top.
- Select your course or use the search bar.
- Select your assignment or use the search bar.
- Click play_circle_outline Taking in the menu at the top. The page will open on the participants overview.
- Click Progress in the tab at the top and the Progress overview will be visible.
The participants overview gives an insight into three stages of the test:
-
Not started yet
In the 'Not started' section, you can see all of the participants that have not yet started the test. If you are missing any participants that should have access to the test, you can click on Manage participants to add more students to this course.
-
Busy
In the 'Busy' section you can see the participants that are currently taking the test. If you click on the more_vert icon next to the participant, you have the option to move them to 'Submitted'. Be aware that using this option will end the test for the participant. You may see that some participants still appear in the 'Busy' section after the timeslot has ended. This is just visual and they will automatically be moved to 'Submitted' within minutes. Even though they may appear in the 'Busy' section, they cannot continue with their test after their timeslot deadline has ended.
-
Submitted
In the 'Submitted' section you can see the participants that have submitted their test. Participant will also be moved to 'Submitted' once the timeslot of the test has expired. If you click on the more_vert icon next to the participant, you have the option to change the additional time or move the participant back to busy.
If you click on Progress during the test, you can see the percentage of participants that have completed each exercise.
In cases where a participant, for example, is not able to sign in to Ans or has to re-enter their assignment from a different computer, you can generate a one-time password token that they can use once in order to start or continue their digital test. At the participants overview, click the more_vert-icon next to the name of the participant. Click Generate one-time password token and click Generate. The one-time password will be displayed.
If students are unable to log in when Single Sign-On (SSO) is enforced, they will still have the option to log in using a generated one-time password.
During the taking session of your digital test, you have the option to add additional time to individual participants. This could be used in instances where a technical malfunction has occurred for that participant. It is not possible to add additional time before the participant has started the test.
To add extra time to an individual participant, follow the steps below.
- Click the domain School name in the menu on the left.
- Click on label_importantCourses in the menu at the top.
- Click on your course or use the search bar.
- Click on your assignment or use the search bar.
- Click play_circle_outline Taking in the menu at the top. The page will open on the participants overview.
- Click the more_vert-icon next to the participant's name.
- Click Change additional time.
- Enter the number of extra minutes you would like to add and click Save.
In instances where a participant has not correctly uploaded a file during a digital test, you have the option to add this file for them afterwards.
To upload a file for a participant after they have taken and submitted their digital test, follow the steps below.
