    The Proctor console appears and the testing session starts.

  3. Select students and make needed assignments (each student can have a different assignment):

    If not available, you already have a session running (you can only run one at a time). Click     Return to Testing.

End of Testing

Before you can begin another testing session, you must end the first session. You can run only one testing session at a time. Although it's possible to leave your testing session running until more students arrive, you cannot keep it running overnight. Every night, all sessions are closed automatically, and any tests left open become suspended.

To end for all students:

  1. On the Proctor console, click End Testing Session.
    If students are still testing, a prompt shows that those tests will become suspended. Click     Yes to continue.

  2. At the next prompt, choose either:

    1. Save and Exit: Choose if the same group of students will be tested together later.

    2. Delete Session: Choose if different groups will be formed for further testing. (Does not affect test results; students can resume incomplete tests in the same or another testing session.)

  3. Close down the browser or app on student testing devices using the applicable command:

  4. Chromebook:  Click the X or Shift+Alt+K

Scenario 1: Student name is missing from the student login screen or student was kicked out of testing and can’t re-join.

  • Confirmed—Choose Select Action > Do Not Confirm (you will confirm later)

  • Testing—Choose Select Action > Suspend

  • Suspended—Choose Select Action > Test Again

Ask the student to sign in again, if the student has already signed in then pressing F5 will refresh the student name list, then confirm as usual.
