The user interface allows the starting, stopping, suspending, resuming, and section release functions to be performed on a particular session. The user interface also allows the proctor to authorize a test restart if an individual student intentionally or unintentionally terminates the test delivery. All test authorizations are assigned to a particular testing program. The student test authorization provides a unique identification for each test taker. Proctors print authorization letters for distribution to the students.
Proctors can create, modify, or remove a test authorization.
In addition, the module supports the ability to reset passwords in the event of a lockout due to excessive password guessing. The delivery system supports several types of tests, including sequential, adaptive, and random test item presentation. Basic features prevent students from using cut and paste on items. More advanced features provide control over the desktop to prevent access to other applications or Web surfing during the test delivery. In addition, all items are loaded into client memory so that they are not cached to the hard drive on the client PC by the browsers.
