Examview Practice Quiz

Filed under: Assessment, Software, Technology — Patty O'Flynn @ 4:24 pm



I use Examview to create practice quizzes for my students. Here is Practice Test 7.1-7.4 that works with ExamView Test Player; I’ve used dynamic questions so that students get a new version of each question every time. ExamView Test Player is available as a free download so students can take practice tests at home.

Here’s the info you will need to access the practice quiz:

Password: imamathwiz

Name: Please just use your own name. If you are not one of my math students and want to take the quiz just for fun (and let’s face it, who wouldn’t?), just enter “guest”.

ID: not necessary

If you are a student in my Advanced Algebra class and wish to retake Quiz 7.1-7.4, you must take this practice quiz and score at least 80% before you can schedule your retake. You are able to take this practice quiz multiple times (it’ll change the numbers in the problems each time you open it). When you are finished, please print your results when you finish the practice quiz and bring it to me along with your original quiz corrections.

  1. Hi Patty,
    It’s great to see you share about your use of the ExamView Test Player with an actual practice quiz. Could you share the password for it (and maybe also tell people to enter anything for the name and ID part if that’s true)?
    Thanks!
    Tim

  4. Wow Patty –

    1. What a great way to get your students to study and prove that they’re actually ready for a retake.

    2. Wouldn’t it be great if each of these problems linked to a mathcast of a similar problem that they could watch if they needed to?

    I hope lots of people figure out that what you’re doing is what they should do and that you’ll get to share the work with them perhaps using a wiki!
