All tests and quizzes are not the same
For online classes, there are a number of ways quizzes and tests are administered. There are untimed and timed exams, and there are also one-time and unlimited exams. It’s very important to know the type of quiz/test you’re taking.
Test/Quiz Tip List:
- Untimed Tests/Quizzes: These types of exams give you as much time as you want to take them. You go in once, and then you can sit there for days, if you wanted. You just need to remember to save often and make sure you have steady, uninterrupted internet access.
- Timed Tests/Quizzes: There is a time limit to these exams. So you need to read the instructions carefully so you know how much time you’re going to get.
- Unlimited Tests/Quizzes: For these exams, you can take them an unlimited number of times. That means you can open the exam, take it once. Then later, before the cut-off deadline, you can go back and re-take it to try to get a better score. Again, the instructions will state whether the particular exam is unlimited.
- One-time Tests/Quizzes: Most exams are one-time only. That means you open it once, you take it once, and then it’s closed.
The instructions should always state the parameters and details of the exams; so carefully read through this information. Ask questions before taking the exam if you’re unsure about something.
