Test blueprints
Blueprint: save and activate in student view
When you have added all of your questions to the blueprint and are happy with the way the settings are configured, you can save the blueprint and activate it for use in student view. In student view, you can schedule the exam and configure correction settings for open questions. In addition, you can also test the exam as a student. (see step 4).
Student view is also where students perform the exam, although they need their own log-in credentials.
