Retrieve and Analyse Candidate Results

When the candidates have completed the assessment, you can retrieve their results using the E-Class Mark Book. This is reached by click the mark book button after selecting a test within the E-Class Editor (where you originally set the assessment).

All candidates in the E-Class will be listed with the following details set across seven columns:

  • Username The name they use to sign onto Test Nation.
  • Fullname The registered Full Name for the candidate.
  • Class / Organisation / Group The name of a group within an E-Class.
  • Marks The number of marks gained over the maximum mark.
  • Percentage score The marks show as a percentage.
  • Time taken The amount of time the candidate took to finish the test. It is useful to see if there is a correlation between time taken and marks achieved.
  • Time started The time the candidate pressed Begin. It can be useful to see if different assessment sittings achieve varying average mark (maybe the candidates have been talking to each other).
  • Grade / Comment A preset grade or comment for each score band.

Mark Book Views

There are 4 Mark Book views that can be viewed using a drop down box:

  • All Candidates See all the candidates registered with the E-Class whether they have marks or not.
  • Candidates With Results View only the candidates who have taken the assessment.
  • Candidates Without Results View only the candidates who have not taken the assessment.
  • Question Statistics Where you can see how many percent of candidates got the question right, wrong or did not answer. There is also a column that shows the most frequent wrong answer. A percentage over 30% may mean the question is at fault, ie. The question may be ambiguous or even wrong.

All column on display can be sorted into any order by clicking on the column headings.
