The Drop Box works like Resources to allow you to upload many types of files and multiple files at a time. Linear tests require you to go in order through the questions/parts – no going back to look at previous questions. The Drop Box feature allows instructors and students to share documents within a private folder for each student. Naturally, this option only works with non-linear (random access) tests. They can use it to click on the questions that they wanted to review from that page.

To take full advantage of this tool, students should look over the table of contents before submitting their answers. For a more detailed description of a topic, click the appropriate link under 'Tools'. You will find a brief description of each available tool below. Logging in successfully takes you to your Profile page in Oncourse. Type your IU Network ID or Guest account username and password, and then click Login. Students will see a check-box that says “Mark for Review ” if they click it, then that question is marked in the table of contents. Oncourse offers many features to help instructors and students collaborate and learn more effectively. This will take you to Indiana University's Central Authentication Service (CAS). With Mark for Review, assessment creators can let students bookmark questions that they want to look at again before they submit the test. I like using this format if I can, since sometimes test takers panic and can’t remember the answer to something when put on the spot. The non-linear (or “random access”) format provides much more flexibility: students can click on a Table of Contents link to skip ahead or return to unanswered questions. This is a good choice if, for example, the answer to question 2 shows up in question 4. In the linear format, the order of questions is set by the test creator, and students are forced to answer one question (or part of the test) at a time, without being able to return to previous sections. With Assessment Organization, test or survey questions can be delivered either linearly or non-linearly. Two settings in particular can be exploited for pedagogical purposes: Assessment Organization and Mark for Review. They can even allow students to respond anonymously, or choose to hide students’ names from the person grading a test (such as a course assistant). In addition they can add a time limit, and add feedback (for specific responses, or for the assessment as a whole). Under Settings, instructors can specify delivery dates for their assessments, including whether or not to accept late submissions.
Students should pay attention to these options too, as different settings might change their test-taking strategies. Oncourse’s Tests & Surveys tool lets instructors change a wide variety of settings in the assessments they create.
