Students can access a self assessment through a Quicklink under a topic within a course module. This method connects Content to Self Assessments, allowing students to see what material they should have covered before measuring their progress with a self assessment.
You can organize self assessments into categories to make it easier to find assessments with similar or related content. Create, edit, reorder, and delete multiple categories at the same time.
Create random sections in self assessments to distribute a unique set of questions to individual users. Random sections pull questions from a designated pool of questions stored in the Question Library. Specify how many questions users receive from the random section question pool after you import questions from the Question Library into the random section folder.
Create self assessment sections to organize your questions into folders. You can do this in the Question Library or while creating a self assessment. Both of these areas are identical in functionality: one creates folders within the Question Library, while the other creates folders within a self assessment.
You can import self assessment questions from numerous sources. Questions can come from an existing collection of questions (quizzes, surveys, self assessments, and the Question Library), a CSV file, or a learning object repository.
