3.2 Mastery and Weight
Mastery and weight provide the course creator with a method to control the value of a test.
Mastery is a number you give the test to identify how many correct questions the student needs to pass a test.
For example, you may create a test with 10 questions and the student needs eight questions to pass or receive a certificate of completion. The mastery score will be eight.
This graphic shows a test with six questions. To receive a mastery, the student must answer four questions correctly.
Weight provides the course creator with a way to give the student extra credit for difficult questions or no credit for a easy question.
An average question may have a weight of one (point) while a difficult question may have a weight of three (points).
It's True! If there are four questions on a test, three questions may have a weight of one while one question may have a weight of three. The student can pass the test if the mastery score is three, the student gets three one point questions wrong and the one three point question correct.
Tip Survey questions are not graded and are not included in a mastery score.
3.3 Feedback
Feedback provides you with a methodology to provide students with feedback based on their answer.
Most question types let you supply the student with feedback based on whether or not they got the question right or wrong.
For multiple choice questions, you may provide feedback if the student got the answer correct or based on their choice.
3.4 Configuration
Test configuration provides course creators with control over student interactions.
Course creators may choose to limit the time a student can take a test
Course creators can choose where a student goes after they take a test based on their mastery score.
If a student masters a test, a course creator can choose to send the student to a choice of locations including the next page, end of chapter, or by typing a URL to a new course.
If a student does not master a test, a course creator can choose to send the student to a choice of locations including the beginning of the chapter or by typing a URL they can be sent to a different course.

4.1 Tracking Test Results
You can use the separately purchased ReadyGo Server-Side Testing module or a separately purchased Learning Management System to store results and track student registration.
Alternatively, you can choose to have the test results emailed to a recipient of your choosing.
Choose Testing & Tracking > Course-wide Setup to specify what method you will use to obtain your test results.
In choosing an LMS, you can choose from several LMSs and standards for Web-based learning technologies including the SCORM specification and the Aviation Industry CBT Committee (AICC) standard for course management interfaces (CMI).
If you are using an LMS for your results storage, this is the only setup required in WCB. Save your course, generate the course, and then upload the server test files. The course structure files are in a directory named lms.
If you are using the ReadyGo Server-Side Testing module to store your test results, continue reviewing the remaining sections of this chapter for more information.
If you are not using an LMS or ReadyGo Server-side Testing to store and track your test results, you can choose to have test results emailed. From the Storage/Grading Method list, choose Results through e-mail. You must also edit (in a text editor) the idxmail1.js file to specify the e-mail address of the person who will receive the emailed test results. Refer to the WCB Help for more details.
You only need to set up this information once for the course. You can make changes at any time and if you do, you must generate the course and upload the server test files.
It's True! You can also set up the test result storage information when you add or edit a test.
4.2 SST Features
SST supports a number of features including:
Randomization lets you change the order the test questions are displayed each time a student takes a course.
Ability to limit the number of times each test can be taken. Once a student has taken a particular test more than the allowed number of times, they are no longer allowed to take it.
Specify a time limit after course registration for completing the course. A student has a specific amount of time in which to complete the course. After this time, they are not allowed to take any more of the tests.
Ability to specify four different passwords for a course so that the passwords can be rotated and expired. Four different password fields are available. The course author can change the passwords as needed and can control who has particular passwords in order to limit what groups can take the tests at what times.
