How to make an online test in four steps and set it for a class

Four steps make a chapter test. Choose when students see the answers, set it for a class, and it appears on their To do list.

Every screen in the films is the real product, shown on a demo school made for them.

A quick chapter test should not take a period to prepare. In Apar AI LMS an online test takes four steps: the basics, the chapter, the questions and a final check. You can pick every question yourself, or let a mixed test be picked for you and adjust it.

The film makes a Class 10 Science test on Life Processes, decides when students may see the answers, sets it for 10-A, and then opens the student's dashboard to show it waiting with its due date.

Good to know

MCQs are marked automatically

Students get MCQ marks as soon as they submit. Written answers go to the teacher's marking list, where the AI suggests and the teacher decides.

Answers stay hidden while it is open

With After the due date, the app does not show the test's answers while the test is still open.

One test, many classes

Set for classes lets you tick more than one class. The page then says how many classes it is set for.

Questions

Can the questions be picked for me?
Yes. In step two, a mixed test of MCQs, short and long answers can be picked for you, and you can still remove or add questions in step three.
When can students see the answers to an online test?
You choose under Show answers to students. With After the due date, the app does not show them while the test is open.
Can I change when the test opens and when it is due?
Yes. When you set it for a class, both the opening time and the due date can be changed.
