Known Issues

If you have problems exporting/importing questions, refer to the information below. For the latest information regarding the
export utility go to the Support area on our website at www.einstruction.com.

The following information describes situations where content exported from ExamView may be modified to fit the constraints
imposed by WebCT CE 6/Vista 4.

l

Images, including equations and formulas, cannot be displayed in the General Feedback area.

l

WebCT CE 6/Vista 4 does not support importing question items without also importing a quiz containing all the
questions.

l

WebCT CE 6/Vista 4 filters out the symbols "<", ">", and "&" from ExamView test/question bank titles. These symbols
can be manually added back to the title from within the WebCT environment.

l

WebCT CE 6/Vista 4 does not support the concept of a narrative (a common piece of information shared by multiple
questions). During export to WebCT, ExamView copies the content of each narrative to every question that refers to it.

l

Although ExamView supports Matching questions that contain just a picture or equation as an answer choice, Matching
questions in WebCT CE 6/Vista 4 must contain some text. For choices consisting of just equations/images/graphs, add
"Choice A", "Choice B", etc. labels in front of the graphics to distinguish the choices in the answer drop-down menu.

l

Matching question scoring in WebCT CE 6/Vista 4 does not support specifying different scores for individual pairs of
matches.

l

Multiple Response questions with Partial Scoring will automatically be set to allow negative scores when imported into
WebCT CE 6/Vista 4. If negative scores are not desired, you will need to manually change this setting for the question.
