i-assess examiner

Delivering assessments
i-assess examiner is the combination of two student interfaces:

PC-based Secure Browser
Used in an off-line manner, students view questions and exams in a custom-built secure web-browser.
This program is also used to test questions from within i-assess editor and i-assess organiser.

Any Standard Web-Browser
Used on an Intranet of live Internet connection, any standard Web-browser can be used to sit exams. No plug-ins, JavaScript or custom software is needed - just a connection to the server.



		Unique flexibility
		Questions and assessments created using i-assess will run automatically on both platforms described above. No conversion program or filtering applications are required. This unique flexibility makes i-assess the most versatile and powerful assessment solution currently available.
		Accessibility
		The layout of questions and exams are driven using HTML based templates. The questions fully employ Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). This means that users with visual impairment or those with dyslexia can be catered for. Corporate styles can be easily attached to a question database.
		Ultimate useability
		Uses a proven and unobtrusive interface that students find easy to use.
		Security
		Both student interfaces use high levels of security. No information is transferred to the student-interface regarding correct answers. Question databases can be encrypted with individual encryption keys. This makes it practically impossible for unauthorised viewing of your questions.
		Candidate advice
		You can provide text and graphical advice to candidates after each question and/or question part. This is useful to reinforce the correct answer or clarify any potential misconceptions, particularly during self-assessment. You can also specify the number of marks a student has to achieve for a particular question so they are not shown the advice prematurely.
		Candidate feedback
		Feedback can be used in many different ways to provide instant assistance to students. This is very useful when using i-assess as a learning resource tool.
