Working with Classes and Assignments

ExamView Test Manager provides the features you need to track results for paper and online tests. To begin, create a new
class. Then, manually enter the student information or import a roster from another format such as your gradebook. Follow the
steps in the appropriate section to create a new class and enter your roster.

IMPORTANT

You do not have to create a new class if you do not plan to track student results or give online
tests.

Creating a New Class

Before you enter student information, you must create a new class. Enter information about your class (e.g., class name, class
ID, period, and section) and yourself (name, ID, school name, school ID, city, and state). Only a few fields are required, while
fields such as Password and School ID are optional.

6

Manually Entering Student Names and IDs

After you create a new class, the next step is to enter student information. At a minimum, you must enter each student’s name
and assign an ID. You may also enter an alias, password and device ID. ExamView Test Manager provides an option to show
the alias instead of the name and ID on reports. You can assign a unique password to each student to use when taking an
online (LAN) test and a device ID to collect assessment data using clickers.

ExamView Test Manager allows you to generate reports using optional demographic information such as gender, socio-
economic factors, race and custom fields (e.g., instructor, location, etc.). Click More in the New Student window to display the
data entry fields to record this information.

NOTE

A single class may contain up to 1000 students.
