How It Works

  1. Quizzes and tests are created in Classmarker via the "link" function. Once a test is successfully created, it is assigned an ID
  2. A custom smart link can be added to a guide to automate passing user and account variables to Classmarker. The smart link is structured the following way:

    {{ClassMarker test="######" linkTest="Test" unlockChannel="module-2-3"}}

    1. the two curly braces ( {{ ) tells Guides this is a smart link
    2. The ClassMarker at the beginning tells the Guides system that this smart link is a ClassMarker smart link
    3. test="#####" is where you enter the test ID
    4. linkTest="???" is the text you want to show the user to click on
    5. unlockChannel="xxxx" is the url of the channel -- within the same account -- you want to unlock for the user and display following a "pass" grade
  3. IMPORTANT: As the administrator of a guide, you will always see the smart link (like above), however, non-administrators only see a link.
  4. When a user clicks on the link, it passes the user's email address and ID to classmarker so the system knows who is taking the test.
  5. If the user passes the test, Classmarker sends a message to Guides to unlock the next channel and the user is forwarded to this new channel (optional).
