Section Tests

This article is about how to navigate the Section Tests within your Integral subscription.
Almost all sections include a section test which covers the work in the section. They include a variety of types of question, including short answer, multiple choice and matching questions. For each question, students can check their answer immediately after entering it, and if it is wrong they will be given another attempt for fewer marks.
There are usually 3 marks for a correct answer with partial marks allocated for partially correct answers or answers which are correct after a second attempt.
Worked solutions are 'hidden' - they are visible to teachers but not to students until they have passed the test. The worked solutions file is situated immediately under the test. Students are allowed two attempts and for scores of 76% or more, the worked solutions for the test will become available on their course page.
Tests can be accessed by:
- Click into your Dashboard and select a course.
- Select a topic and click the desired section (subtopic).
- Scroll down to the Progress section, where the section test is located.
- Click on the test.
Teachers may view a complete breakdown of the test results for their group by clicking into the test then the Results tab. The test breakdown can be found by clicking Review attempt for each student.
To delete attempts, select the appropriate checkboxes on the left of each attempt on the Results page shown above, and press Delete selected attempts underneath the results list. You can read more about this here.
Students are allowed two attempts at each test. If a student has not reached the pass mark, it is likely that they need some intervention from a teacher. If a student then needs further attempts, you can delete one (or both) of their previous attempts. They will then be able to attempt the test again.
Please note: The questions DO NOT change so when a student completes the section test again it will be with questions they have already answered before.
