Overview

A blend of existing and new features makes it easy to manage testbanks and make tests:

• The Startup window lets you quickly start new or open recently used tests and testbanks.
• The Testbank Library provides an easy way to access testbanks and choose questions for tests.
• The Resource Library provides templates for adding new questions, answers, and notes to tests.
• On-screen editing of test questions and answers eliminates the need for a separate question editor.
• Using drag-and-drop makes it easy to copy questions from the Testbank or Resource Libraries onto tests.
• Tools for creating mathematical graphs and managing graphics provide built-in support for technical or graphical testbanks.
• Three optional toolbars display shortcuts for standard commands, text formatting, and equation editing.
• Exports to commonly used formats make tests portable to other applications.

Startup Window

The Startup Window on the right half of the screen shows all the options you need to get started with making tests:

• Click an icon to start a new paper test, web test, or testbank.
• Choose files from lists of recently opened or edited tests and testbanks.
• Browse to find additional files.

Testbank Library

The Testbank Library on the left side of the screen gives you quick access to the testbanks in your collection:

• Open and close chapters and sections to view and choose questions for your tests.
• Easily add and remove testbanks from the Library as needed.
• Use filtering to display only the questions you want to see.
• Protect testbanks in the Library from accidental changes or deletions.

On-Page Test Editing

Live editing fields eliminate the need for a separate question editor when creating or modifying tests. Simply click in the question or answer field and type or edit as needed.

• Make content changes directly on the test page.
• Adjust font, type size, and spacing for individual questions or use global settings.
• Modify preferences to get the test page layout you want.
• Modify test headers and footers.
• Insert your own notes above, below, or between questions as needed.
• Add extra choices for multiple-choice, bimodal, and matching questions.
• Rearrange questions using drag-and-drop or SmartSort rules.

Testbank Editing

Edit testbank questions in the same way as test questions—on-screen, without a separate question editor.

• Set preferences to turn on testbank editing functions when needed.
• Make changes to testbank questions on-screen in the testbank editing window.
• Use powerful editing tools to set up macros, format math expressions, insert mathematical graphs, and manage the graphics library.
• Add, assign, or modify supplementary information for questions in the Properties window.
