READYGO
SERVER-SIDE TESTING 3.0
Automatically Creates Student Certificates
Certificate Generation,
Test Time Tracking, Centralized User Lists Mountain View, CA (October
14, 2002) -- ReadyGo, Inc. creator of the easiest and fastest authoring tool
for building e-Learning web courses, today announced the availability of Server-Side
Testing (SST) 3.0. The new version delivers significant new capabilities requested
by users, including certificate generation, time tracking, centralized user
lists, and test question pooling. SST is the tracking and reporting component
of the ReadyGo product suite and the companion product to the ReadyGo Web
Course Builder, a popular web authoring tool for creating eLearning courses. "Sometimes, simple features
can save trainers and corporations both time and money," said Anita Rosen,
CEO of ReadyGo, Inc. "Our upgrades are always based on what our customers
request." Automatic Certificate
Generation, Courselet Trend Several new features have
been incorporated to meet increasing customer demand for "courselets"
-- abbreviated training sessions of 10 to 15 minutes. Most trainers are tasked
with accomplishing training with as little impact on daily operations as possible.
This new trend toward "courselets" tends to focus the user's attention
and is also more easily referred to for quick updates. It also demands that
testing time be monitored. The new SST 3.0 test tracking
feature meets this need. In conjunction with the new "jump off"
feature, instructors can ensure that those testing spend only the allotted
time on a test and can easily set up an alternate "next" page based
on the student's score. The centralized user list
function of SST 3.0 streamlines situations in which students take multiple
courses, enabling administrators to manage those courses with a single file.
This file lists all students who are permitted to take a specific group of
courses/tests. With test question pooling,
the computer randomly selects a set number of questions -- say, 10 out of
100. This helps ensure the integrity of the testing process.
and Test Question Pooling Among New Features
Once a student meets the specified completion time on a course, a certificate
can be created automatically and printed out for each student. Course creators
can customize the certificate feature for each course.
New Reporting
Features
A number of new reports are available with SST 3.0. Course statistics indicate
at a glance how many students have tested, and how many remain to be tested.
Instructors can now also track the grading curve.
