Personal Websites
You can publish tests/study guides to your own website. You must save the tests/study guides to your hard drive, upload the
files to your website, and then provide access to your students. Refer to the following sections for step-by-step instructions.
When your students complete an internet test, the browser will send the student's test results and all responses directly to you
via email. The email will include the following information:
l
student name and ID
l
raw score and percentage score for objective-based questions
l
responses for each question (objective and open-ended questions)

Saving an Internet Test to a Hard drive
When you save an internet test to your hard drive, the program creates an HTML file and an accompanying folder with all of the
necessary image files. This makes it easier for you to post the files to a web server. If, for example, you enter C:\Program
Files\eInstruction\ExamView\Tests\chapter1, the software will create a file called chapter1.htm and a folder called chapter1_
files with the required image files.
1 Create a test/study guide just as you would create a test to be printed.
2 Click File, mouse over Export and select HTML.
3 Name the test.
NOTE
The Test Generator automatically replaces any spaces in file names with underscores ( _ ).
If there are problems with symbol characters displaying incorrectly in browsers other than

l
Export as study guide - If you select to export a study guide, you can decide whether or not to display the
rationale, feedback and a reference for your students. Using the study guide mode, students can check their own
work. The program scores each objective question and shows which responses were correct and which were
wrong.
l
Export as test - If you select to export a test, you must specify an email address. When students submit a
completed test, the browser sends the results to you via email. If you prefer, you can allow students to see their
results.
