Mark questions for review
During the assessments i notice that sometimes my students answer some questions, but write the question number so they can review them at a later time before the end of the exam. I think that it would be interesting, if the students could mark the questions for review.

Fully name the SBA files so they can be efficiently found
The SBA files are ALL listed as "Skills Based Exam", but the user has to click each file, wait for it to open and then check to see if it is the correct exam needed. Adding the course name to the file name would be extremely helpful.

An open question to feedback forms
Would it be possible to add an "open question" to feedback forms and give some space for students to write down their opinions?

Simpler method for instructors to take exams or Skill Based Assessments
If I want to simulate the student experience for taking an assessment, it is not clear how to do that. It should be easy for me to take the same exam or SBA that the students will take in my class so that I can prepare them properly.
1 voteHi Keith,
When in your course, you can go to Settings and click on the Student View. There is also the Assessment Viewer – go to the Exam, click on Load Activity in a new window and the Assessment Viewer is on the right hand side (opposite default/advanced activation). Both of these are for you to view what the student sees. Maybe the best option for you would be to enroll yourself in the course as a “test” student. This will allow you to take the exams. I hope this helps! -

Lock the submit button in assessments until all the questions have been done/seen/looked at.
Two students managed to get 0 in Skills Review Exam, we think because they clicked in the wrong place!
What they are doing is clicking on the Submit button to move onto the next question...
I do think that it's a bit of bad designing having that available before all the questions have been answered...

Create an option to change the default due time for already created assesments.
When you click and drag an undated event to the calendar, it defaults to 12 am. If you want to change it, you have to go into each on individually. Can you make an option to change the default time? Maybe by assesment group.

Provide error message when time exceeds 12 midnight into next day.
When assigning chapter exams, I seem to have quite often entered 12:59 PM as the due date. Clearly 12:59 is a time in the next day.
The assessment scheduling behavior is to NOT do anything except, take the minute calculation and apply it to the default end time, which is 1 hour after the current (default start time.) With no error message this can leave 1 part of the time field looking good but the hour part of the field incorrect.
Since 12:59 PM is clear the next day, this should cause a pop-up asking if the next day should…1 vote -
Visualization on the Student Performance Assessment Summary
On the student performance assessment summary page, a graph on the student scores would be nice. To easy identify question most of the students had difficulties with.

Allow instructor to control whether students can review their exam Q&A after final exam has been taken.
Allow instructor to control whether students can review their exam Q&A after exam has been taken. Not all students pass their final online exam on the first try. Cisco allows students to retake examinations so it is only right to allow instructor to control whether studends can review their exam Q&A. This gives control to the instructor. Cisco understood this for years within old Cisco Academy format. That should not change.

This is available under the Advanced Activation. The last column is “Student View Correct Answer,” please un-check that box. I hope this helps! Thank you! -
Individualized exam feedback missing from version 5.
There is a difference between item feedback and exam feedback. In version 4 a student could get exam feedback which would list each of the reading areas that the student had trouble with on the exam. This is no longer available in version 5. I will not let students look at the exam items because instead of studying the content they will study the exam item to do better on the re-exam. This lets them off of the hook regards to trying to figure out what was missing in their brain regarding the information and instead focuses them on just…

View Assesment Content
Could you please add the ability to view the assesment content as we were able to do so in NetAcad. When preparing to teach I like to look through the assessments to see the types of questions my students will be answering. I like to work problems in class that are similar and it takes a lot more time now having to look at each question individually in the assesment viewer. I liked having the ability to see all the questions on one page - it made my prep time much faster and more efficient.
3 votesMark, you should be able to view the assessment content through the Assessment Viewer link for each exam. You can get there 1 of two ways:
1. From Assignments (chapter and practice exams)
a. Click on the exam link.
b. Click Assessment Viewer.
2. From the Activation Tool (chapter exams only)
a. Click Assessment Viewer
b. Select the exam you would like to view.Thank you,
