Assessments
Spiral Assessments module includes tools to create tests and exams of any complexity, administer them online or offline, capture or enter and analyze results instantaneously, and generate reports of various types.
Key Features:
- Tests and exams may be created using a variety of different items (question types) and organized into several sections if necessary. Instructions may be added to each section and to the entire test or exam. Authors can set the date and time when tests or exams become available to teachers and students.
- Authors can create, store and manage items, tests and exams in their private folders, or share them within a school, across multiple schools or globally. Items and assignments are organized by knowledge domain, subject, and may be searched by keywords or descriptions.
- Items can be mapped to custom or state/country standards (performance objectives). Teachers and administrators can analyze progress of students in relation to each performance objective using data from multiple assessments.
- Students can receive immediate feedback based on their responses and have access to their results in real time through the Schoolwork module.
- The results of a test or an exam can be analyzed instantaneously in many different ways: by grade, by student, by section, by question, or by performance objective (standard). Various preset graphs and charts can be displayed including the distribution of scores. In addition, various reports can be automatically generated in the Reports module in PDF and other formats.
