Adding Notes to Tests

In addition to adding questions, answers, instructions, question type headers, and page headers and footers on tests, you can add your own notes before any question on a test. Notes might include special instructions for a question or group of questions, part headings for the test, or messages to test takers.

Adding Notes

To add a note to a test, display the Testbank Library and click the Resource Library tab. Click the [+] next to Notes and find "Blank note" in the list of items. Drag the blank note onto the test window and drop it above any test question. The note contains the words "Blank note" until you click in the note field on the test and begin to type.

Type text as desired—you can change the font, font size, style, color, alignment, and spacing as needed. You can also insert symbols, templates, graphics, tables, and graphs, just as with other editable fields on tests.

Each note becomes attached to the question that follows it, so if you move or reorder a question that follows a note, the note moves with the question.

Deleting Notes

To remove a note from a test, delete all the content (text, spaces, images, etc.) from the note so that the note field is blank. When you click outside the empty note field, you will receive a message asking if you want to remove the note from the test.
