to PayPal's secure system to enter your credit card
information. PayPal handles the transaction in
US Dollars, so daily exchange rates may vary. When your
payment has successfully been processed by PayPal, click
on the link that returns you to Test Center, and you
will be given an instructor registration number,
and student registration numbers.
Once you receive your registration number, you can activate
your account by going to the
activation form.
When you enter your information, remember that you are also
creating a class. You will be asked to type in a class name
and password. You will need to tell your students the class
name and password, so that they are able to join your class
when they register. DO NOT make the class password the same as
your personal account password! You do not want students in
the class being able to log in as an instructor.
How do I use Test Center?
LOGGING IN:
Before you can use any of the options on Test Center, you must
log in. To log into the site, click on "Home Page"
(near the top left of the page) and enter your username and
password in the "LOGIN" window. Both instructors
and students log in at the same place. You will automatically
be sent to the appropriate page.
If you have forgotten your password, it can be e-mailed to you.
Click on the link below the "Login" button, and
type in your e-mail address in the window that pops up. You
must type in the same e-mail address that you typed in when
you activated your account. Hopefully you entered a working
e-mail address when you registered, otherwise we will not be
able to send you your password.
START PAGE:
Once you log in successfully, you will be sent to the Start
Page (Home Page). The Start Page displays a quick summary of
all your relevant statistics, and the features available to
you. Where ever you go on the site, you can always come back
to this page by clicking on the "Home Page" link
near the top left of the page.
The Start Page is divided into six main windows.
