Assessment configuration in L&D

The assessment configuration allows you to configure the testing parameters.  

To prevent cheating Glider allows you to capture the screen and record the video of the test taker. You can also limit the number of tab switches. 

Setting the test duration, shuffling questions, enabling randomization of questions, adding clear instructions to the learner's and a lot more can be done in the configuration.

Click on the manual settings of the assessment and go to Configure to see these options.

1. Proctoring Settings

• Capture learner's picture - Enable this option if you want to take a photograph of the learner before the assessment starts. The same will be used as a candidate's profile photo for all future references.
• Enable facial match - Enabling this option will help you identify duplicate submissions by analyzing all the candidate submissions for the assessment through facial matching.
• Capture learner's identity proof - Enable this option if you want to capture the learner's identity proof details; here you have the option to capture the number or number and picture of the selected identity proof.
  
  
  
• Require screen share - Enable this option if you want to capture the video feed of the learner's screen recording while he was taking the test. The same will be made available in the monitoring report.
• Require webcam access - Enable this option if you want to record a video of the learner to monitor the test for impersonation. The same will be made available in the monitoring report.

• Enable face detection - Enable this option if you want to check face movement during the assessment.
• Enable audio tracking - Enabling this option helps you to flag all the instances where the learner is talking to somebody or if any human voice is heard in the background.
  
  
  
• Enable learner genuineness verification - Enabling this option will help you track suspicious activities through remote access to the learner's computer. It requires manual verification by the reviewer.
  
  
  
• Track browser tab activity -  Enable this option if you want to record the browsing history, URLs of sites opened, and the content if copy-pasted during the assessment.
• Limit leaving assessment area - Enable this option if you want to restrict the learner from moving out of the test area or limit the number of tab switches; put the relevant number in the box provided.
  
  
  

Note: If proctoring is enabled, then the candidate will not be able to proceed in the test without giving access to the camera and sharing the screen.

2. Basic Settings 

Timed Assessment

Turn the toggle button green if you want to time an assessment. There are two options:

• Question level timer: If you want to set the time to answer at the question level then select this option. The timer keeps ticking for individual questions; if the question is not attempted within the set time, the application will move to the next question automatically. It is important to note that the candidate cannot go back to the previous question if this timer is set. This test can be paused, and the candidate can come back later to take the next question if the time for the previous question has expired. When the question-level timer is set, the assessment does not auto-submit.

• Assessment level timer: You can set the duration of the assessment here; the timer will count down and go off when the candidate attempts the test.
• Disallow moving to previous question: Enable this option to prevent learner from jumping to the previous question.
