| + | ==== Alternate Competency Values ==== | ||
| + | Some Exams calculate the Exam TScore by Aggregating Competency TScores. These Competency TScores are calculating using Alternate Mean and Stdev for each unique Competency linked to an Item on the Exam. | ||
| + | |||
| + | To open the Alternate Competency Value maintenance click the **Edit Values...** button. | ||
| + | |||
| + | {{:exameditpassalternatecompetency.png?600|}} | ||
| + | |||

| - | | Item Value Max| Essay/constructed response type Items have point values entered for the candidate scores. This is the maximum acceptable point value for this item. Example: and essay Item out of 15 points would have 15 as its Value Max.| | + | To edit the alternate mean or stdev for a competency, click the pencil to the left of the row. The users can then change the alternate mean and stdev. To save the changes click the check box to the left of the row. To cancel the changes click the x. |
| - | | Item Value Default| Default score if not otherwise entered by mark entry or scan process. Default value is 0.| | + | |

| - | | Item Time| Used in online testing (FIXME link). Controls the maximum time (in minutes) the candidate can take to answer the item.| | + | |
| - | | Item Pass| The minimum value required to pass the Item.| | + | |
| - | | Item Must Pass| If checked, any Exam that uses this Item requires the Candidate to pass this item or they fail the Exam. Default false (unchecked)| | + | |
| - | |Alternate Values If Skipped| Item Writing supports up to 5 sets of answer key values. If Skipped 1-5 is the default value if the Candidate did not respond to a Multiple choice option. Typical use is for assigning a penalty (eg -0.5) for skipping an Item.| | + | |
| - | |Alternate Other| Item Writing supports up to 5 sets of answer key values. Other 1-5 is the default value for selecting an option if the option does not otherwise have its value specified.| | + | |

| + | ==== Notes ==== | ||
| + | Once changes are saved, they are saved with the Exam until they are modified again. This means they do not have to be modified each time a calculation is run. If no values are setup for the competencies (ie 0), then the calculated mean and stdev for the competency will be used for calculating TScores. | ||
| - | Mark Version (Maximum) | + | If a new Competency is linked to the exam, either by changing the Items on the Exam or modifying an Item already linked to the Exam, the default values for the Alternate mean and Stdev will be 0, meaning the calculated mean and stdev for the competency will be used for calculating TScores. |
