UTest Introduction
Overview
The U-Test is an online exam system developed by ULearning Technology. It encompasses the entire process of online testing, including question creation, exam creation, exam offering/session creation, exam facility scheduling, exam delivery (hosting/taking exam), exam proctoring, exam grading, and exam data analysis and reporting.
The U-Test supports online exams that can be taken virtually via a PC or mobile device, as well as exams conducted in testing facilities such as on-campus classrooms/computer labs or off-campus testing centers.
By default, the U-Test is the exam function of ULearning Learning Management System (ULearning LMS), but it can also be used as a standalone system or integrated with other popular LMS platforms.
This guide is specifically focused on using U-Test as the exam function of ULearning LMS. Guides for other scenarios may have slight differences.
High-Level U-Test Process
To offer an exam with ULearning LMS, the exam needs to be associated with a course. To take the associated exam, a student must be enrolled in a class offered by the course. Assuming the course/class has already been created and students are enrolled, here is the high-level exam process:
- Creating exam questions:
- Questions can be created or added in four different ways:
- Create questions one by one manually (Question Editor)
- Create questions in batch by clicking to insert or by copy/paste (Question Editor)
- Import questions in batch (Question Import Template)
- Duplicate questions created by the school or others (Question Bank)
- Questions can be created or added in four different ways:
- Creating the exam:
- Exams can be created in three different ways:
- Manually created exam
- Automatically created exam
