Schoolyear

Description

Schoolyear is an online solution that creates a safe environment for taking online tests. Candidates receive a link from an invigilator, with which a test can be started. Schoolyear will create a secure environment on the computer by closing all other programs on the computer and starting an exam environment.

When the use of Schoolyear is enabled in a test player, it will be available when planning the test. This can be done in the enrollment settings in the section 'Securing the subscription', to secure the test by using Schoolyear. A test can then only be started via the browser. If the candidate uses a different browser, the start button will not be available. A message will be displayed that the collection can only be done through Schoolyear.

Candidates can start the Schoolyear application directly from Remindo. The candidate is immediately guided to the correct test, so there is no need to log in again.

Setting when scheduling

When scheduling a test moment, an option will be visible, called 'Require school year'. There are two possible options:

• Yes, this registration is only visible if Schoolyear is used
• No, this entry is visible in all browsers.

Select the first option to force use of Schoolyear. Remindo will perform a check that will only show the relevant test moment if Schoolyear is used.

Tests do not have to be scheduled in Schoolyear itself. The link with Remindo will capture it completely.

Administration settings

Under Settings > Administration there are a number of fields related to Schoolyear. See Default settings test moments > Settings for external integrations. Make sure the option 'Enable integration with Schoolyear' is set to Yes. Then an API key and API secret must be entered. An Organization ID must be specified. This information is available through Schoolyear.
