Advanced Exercise Settings

Declaration Sets

Adding a ‘Declaration Set’ to a paper means that students are asked to agree to a set of statements prior to taking an attempt (similar to the welcome screen). The ‘Declaration Set’ is configured in the exercise settings after the ‘Instruction Set’.

You can either create a new set by clicking on the ‘New Declaration Set’ button or choose an existing set from the drop-down.

When creating a new ‘Declaration Set’ first give it a name (this name will not be shown on the exam and is only used for internal auditing purposes) then you can select ‘Add Declaration’ and input one or multiple declarations for the student to confirm. You can then return to the exercise settings page using the breadcrumb and saving the settings.

Your ‘Declaration Set’ will now be applied to every paper underneath the exercise and will require the students to agree before beginning an attempt.

Once the declaration set has been agreed to by a student you will be unable to edit the declaration set. 

Sending Digital Certificates

You can set up digital certificates to be sent out to students upon successful completion of their exams. To configure the certificates, navigate to the relevant course containing the exercise you would like to send a certificate from and then view the settings of the exercise you would like to enable this on.

In the ‘Marking and Results’ section of the settings, you can then select an email to send to students on pass and upload a word version of the digital certificate which will then be attached to this email. The uploaded word document will be converted to a PDF before being sent to the student.

You must select an ‘Email to student on Pass’ email for this to work, uploading the digital certificate alone will not enable this to be sent to students.

The digital certificate can also use some merge fields, which will allow user and attempt information to be displayed in the certificate; to do this you can include any of the below into the uploaded word document.

Finally, ‘Save’ the settings at the bottom of the page and the certificate will be successfully applied. 

Dec. sets and digital certs are not automatically available and will need to be turned on for each instance, if interested in this functionality please contact support@eintech.com for more info.
