Different problems for each student

QUESTION

I want a single test where each student receives a different subset of problems from a larger problem bank. What do I do?

ANSWER

Create a large test with 100 questions. You can configure the test so that each student receives a different random subset of the total problem set.

Click on the test name in your list of tests. This allows you to edit many options related to the set.
If you have Random order already set, look immediately to the right of the word Random for the length of the test. When you set a length like 50 / 100 or 20 / 100 it means that each time someone takes the test they receive a random selection of 50 or 20 questions out of the full problem set.

Assign a test to some students; exempt other students

QUESTION

How can I assign a test to only some students in the class?

ANSWER

You can make some students exempt from taking an assigned test. Click on the test name in your list of assignments (first, click "See tests"). This opens a page for editing the options related to the assignment. Look for the "Exemptions" button. Any student who you mark and save as exempt will not see his/her name in the list of students who must test. The assignment will not appear on the class home page for that student. The student will not see the assignment on his/her mobile device in the ThatQuiz mobile app. For exemptions to work properly, students and teachers who use the mobile app should upgrade it to the latest version.
