Under Settings > Manage general settings there are several tabs with a number of options. These options relate to settings in the current Remindo environment. Within each tab, options will be divided into groups. Changes to the settings can be saved separately for each group. To do this, use the button placed at the bottom right of each block.

Terminologies

Define the terminologies used in the Remindo environment here. Selection fields are available for both the Dutch and English language.


Permissions and roles

This overview contains a table showing which roles have access to which actions. In the legend above you can find what the symbols and colors indicate.


blueprint settings

These settings serve as default settings for this environment. These settings are maintained when creating a new blueprint. These can still be changed during creation. Please note that not all settings that are visible during creation are returned here.

Default blueprint type

Indicate what the default blueprint type is when a new blueprint is created.

Test Matrix Settings

It is possible to enable or disable the use of a blueprint bases on a matrix.

Default blueprint caesura

Use these functions to create a standard caesura. For a more detailed explanation, see the article Normal caesura and possibly Composite caesura.

Default retry settings

The maximum number of resits is indicated here. It is possible to set that no or an unlimited number of resits may be taken.

Default administration settings

These settings enable various features such as time duration, how-to texts, and use of calculator, text highlighting, feedback, and navigation during the test.

Default blueprint visibility settings

The visibility settings indicate which parts are linked back to the candidate.

Default blueprint delivery settings

Specify what a testing environment can do with a test matrix as standard. When full screen protection is enabled, specify what the protection level will be. It is also possible to set that only detection will take place. This will alert invigilating roles that the candidate has gone out of full screen mode, without anything happening on the candidate's side.

Default evaluation settings

This setting allows candidates to complete an evaluation at the end of a test. An external URL can be entered for it. This allows the external page to be visited, or possibly loaded into Remindo.

Default settings for new rules

Specify whether users are allowed to add multiple rules at once and how the rules should be positioned. In addition, specify the weighting factor and how many questions this line should contain.

blueprint Delivery Settings

It can be indicated whether tests with a certain status should or should not be delivered to the administration environment.

Question details settings

Specify the visibility of question details (author of the question) in the player.


Question settings

In the question settings it is possible to disable certain question types for the management environment. In addition, a standard question type can also be selected. This type will be chosen as default when creating a new question, which can be changed at that time. This also applies to any question templates that have been created. These are divided by question type on which the template is based.

In addition, there are various options for making it available for paper tests, exercises and tests. Furthermore, the degree of difficulty can be indicated and the language, calculator and external media can be switched on.

In the 'Demand analysis notification settings' it can be set that when a question exceeds or falls below the set limit values, a notification must be sent. This gives the author the opportunity to adjust the question if necessary. To receive this notification, the role of the user must have the option enabled for 'The measured quality of the question has changed'.

AlgebraKiT question type settings can be found at the bottom of this page. Select the desired user level, matching the linked purchase environment.


Privacy and quality control

Privacy settings

Use these settings to further tighten the privacy rules in the environment. The three available settings relate to media files and privacy.

Quality control settings

Here you can indicate per role whether they can approve their own questions and whether their own tests may be approved.


Undeliverable email

The e-mails to the addresses in the overview could not be delivered due to one of the following reasons:

  • The server was unreachable several times.
  • The server did not accept the message and returned a bounce message.

No emails are currently being sent to these addresses. It is possible to remove this blockage.


Sent e-mail

This overview shows all e-mails that have been sent in the past 3 months.


API

The API keys can be managed under this tab. An API link makes it possible for Remindo to communicate with other software. At the top right of the screen, a new link can be created with the button 'New API key'. To the left of that is a download button with API documentation and examples. Under an existing API key, use the pencil icon to edit it.
