WebCT

Using ExamView you can publish or export tests and question banks to WebCT. Publishing allows you to push content from
ExamView directly to the server whereas exporting involves saving a file and uploading it to WebCT through the browser.
These two options give you the flexibility to create tests in ExamView and then deliver them online via WebCT. You can also
set up your e-learning platform to automatically store the test results into your online gradebook.

If you have problems exporting/uploading question content from ExamView Test Generator, see the Known Issues section for
your specific WebCT platform or go to the Support area on our website www.eInstruction.com.
