Question 1

Scoring open-ended questions manually

Accepted Answer

Open-ended questions are questions that allow someone to give a free-form answer in an essay type question. Closed-ended questions can be answered with “Yes” or “No,” or they have a limited set of possible answers (such as A, B, C, D, or multiple answer choices).

An open-ended question is designed to encourage a full, meaningful answer using the subject's own knowledge to the question. It is the opposite of a closed-ended question, which encourages a short or single-word answer. Open-ended questions also tend to be more objective and less leading than closed-ended questions.

Step 1:

BrainCert supports "Free text" and "Essay type" open-ended question types

Step 2:

Essay question type is not graded automatically. The final test score will be adjusted after the instructor finishes grading essay questions manually.

To grade a test with essay question type, go to the test report. Use the "Grade" option to review questions and score open-ended questions.

Step 3:

You can navigate to the questions with the "Not graded" status, and set question points and save the score. The question points are shown based on the weight set when creating questions. For example, in adaptive tests, if you set a question difficulty level as "3", then there will be a maximum 0-3 shown in the ques

Network Ports

Connections made to BrainCert WebRTC cloud across all global regions use the following TCP and UDP ports. If UDP port is blocked then calls will connect over TLS rather than the more efficient protocol UDP, which can lead to quality issues with video, audio and content sharing. It is important that firewall ports are opened to BrainCert servers. We have implemented technology to work if you are behind strict corporate firewalls and NAT environments. If you can't get the audio/video working inside virtual classroom, then most likely our IP is blocked by your firewall.
