IMPORTANT

Changing assignment information with the Edit Assignment Information command only
changes the information for the specified assignment in the current class. For example, if you
change an answer in an online test and then reuse the test in a different class, the original
answer will be used.

2

Click the General tab to edit the assignment name, ID, category, term, and date.

3

Click the Questions tab to edit answers, question information, or question point values. Select the appropriate option
from the Show drop-down list and edit the information.

If the test has not been administered to your students yet and you wish to change this type of information, it is
recommended that you change the test itself using ExamView Test Generator and then recreate the assignment. If you
have already administered the test to your students and then found mistakes with the answers, question information, or
point values, this option allows you to correct those mistakes.

The answers and student responses for multiple choice and multiple response questions use the A-E choice sequence
regardless of how the test was set. This is to avoid confusion if you administer tests using multiple delivery methods
and/or deliver scrambled versions of the tests. However, you can set the choice sequence on the Assignment Review
and Assignment Results by Student reports.

Click the Access, Password, Time Limit, Presentation, Review, or Report tabs (if available) to edit online test
information. For more information on these options, see

Creating a New Assignment (LAN Test)

on page 20.

Assignment Results by Student reports.

Updating Online Tests

Information is often sent from ExamView Test Manager to your LAN-based test (EOT) files. For example, when you change
the preferences for an assignment, such as whether or not students can check their answers, or when you add a student to
your roster, Test Manager sends that information to your test files.

The process of communicating this information happens automatically whenever you save your class file. However, you may
also choose to send updated information to your test files at any time by using the Update Online Tests command.
