14 – Assessment and Evaluation
CONFIGURING THE WEBCT QUIZ SETTINGS
To open the Quiz Settings
page: From Control Panel > Quizzes/Surveys
> [Name of Quiz] >
Edit Quiz Settings. Seventeen different
areas can be identified in
the Quiz settings.
In the following I only discuss a few of the 17 areas
numbered above, many of these areas are covered in
other sources about WebCT CE 4.x. I only cover those
that are directly relevant to monitoring a quiz in a lab.
Controlled release of quizzes
Controlled release to specific students [9]
• You can release quizzes to the whole class or to only a
subsection of the class, even to just one person.
• Even though you can control release to one account,
more than one person can sign into an account (all
using the same student/WebCT ID). So, a student
could sign into a quiz, and have their bright friend in
Timbuktu sign in at exactly the same time and complete
the quiz for them, while the student sits in front
of the workstation appearing to do the work. The best
way to stop this is by controlling the IP Address, and
setting and changing the password.
