Version 3.0 allows students to customize the look and feel of Prometheus, thus giving students more control over the way they use Prometheus. Faculty can now request Gelman Library reserves online via Prometheus. Students can download the electronic reserve, view it and print it. This feature is especially convenient for distance learners and others who do not often visit the campus or do not have ready access to the Library building. Faculty are given the options to password protect tests, hide tests from students until the test period, create timed tests that will show and hide tests at predetermined times, and randomize test questions.
Students can take tests, and faculty can grade tests, online.
While grading the short and long answer questions, faculty can respond to student answers and provide feedback. Once the test is completely graded, faculty can make the graded test available for students to view their scores. The grade book can work in conjunction with the testing software if the faculty choose to do so. In the grade book, faculty can create as many grading categories as they like and they can choose to allow students to view their course grade, view their course grade in relation to the rest of the class, or not to allow students to view their grades. Merriam-Webster's Dictionary and Thesaurus was integrated into Prometheus.
