Importing and exporting information is simple, enabling instructors to easily meet reporting requirements.


Computerized Testing and Tracking

Pre-Quizzes and quizzes are delivered via the computer with results automatically reported. Both a numeric score as well as completed objectives are reported. Test questions are tied to objectives, ensuring a thorough evaluation of student knowledge. By being able to see what questions they missed, teachers can easily identify where they need to spend additional study time.

Amatrol's pre-quiz feature allows class management to boost not only instructor productivity but also student effectiveness. The pre-quiz feature facilitates a faster student pace for those starting with more knowledge by identifying areas needing further study. Likewise, it allows a student to skip sections where knowledge is sound.
