On NEOs, you can print using a cable connection to a printer or using
infrared beaming. (On NEO 2 laptops you can also use radio frequency
technology to print.) For more information, see the NEO 1 or NEO 2 User
Manual.
How Students Save Quizzes to an AlphaWord File
When you create a quiz, in the Advanced Quiz Options, you can choose
whether to allow students to save their quiz to an AlphaWord file. If you allow
this, students can follow these steps to save the quiz:
1. Before exiting the quiz, the student must press send.
2. The NEO asks the student to choose a file. The student presses the file
number he or she wants to save the quiz in; then, the student presses
enter.
3. If the file isn’t empty, the NEO warns the student that the quiz will delete
any text that is in the file now. If the student wants to continue, he or she
presses Y for yes. If not, the student presses N for no and then presses a
different file number. The NEO will automatically exit AlphaQuiz and open
the AlphaWord file (unless the quiz needs to be marked finished).
Teacher Options for Quizzes in AlphaQuiz
For most teacher tasks, you’ll use QuizDesigner and QuizManager on your
computer to create quizzes, send them, and retrieve responses. However, the
AlphaQuiz SmartApplet also includes a few teacher options that you can use
right on the NEO. These options let you do the following:
• Check a student’s password so you can give it to a student who has
forgotten the password and needs it to finish a quiz.
• Delete a student’s answers.
• Change the finished status of a quiz. For example, if a student leaves a class
without marking a quiz finished, and you want to use the NEO for other
functions, you may want to mark it finished yourself.
• Viewing a student’s responses before they are sent to QuizManager.
Follow these steps to use the teacher options:
1. Start the NEO and press applets.
