As an instructor, you can also request an assessment for a single student
using the "Request Assessment" option (in the Advanced Module).
When a Requested Assessment is triggered, the assessment will take place
immediately the next time the student logs in (compared to the Scheduled
Assessment, where the student is only prompted to take the assessment
after the date or time specified by the instructor). Like the
Scheduled Assessment, a Requested Assessment for a single student
"resets the clock" for automatic assessments.
The results of this assessment
will not be included in the Gradebook.
The style of a Requested Assessment can also be set to progress or
comprehensive. Progress Assessments are slightly shorter and focus on
the student's most recent learning history; Comprehensive Assessments
are slightly longer and probe more deeply into the student's overall
knowledge of the class content.
For additional information about Requested Assessments,
see Sec. 7.17.1.
