➡️ See below for what a Preview of each type of assessment will look like:

Simple Assessment
Rubric Assessment
Advanced Assessment

Simple Assessment Preview

You can preview a simple assessment while you are in the builder; select Preview in the upper right-hand corner.

After selecting Preview, you will be taken directly to the first question on the assessment.
This will be the exact view the students will have.
You can input answers, but nothing will be saved or submitted

Rubric Assessment Preview

After selecting Preview, you will be taken directly to the Rubric Assessment.
This is not exactly what the students will see, but it gives you an idea of what the rubric will look like.
To see what rubric assessments look like for students, check out this article.

Did you add an attachment (such as a Google Doc) to your rubric? If so, that attachment is not shown on the preview. Don't worry, though, it will be there for the students! If it was a Google Doc, it will appear below the rubric. If it was a regular attachment, it will appear in the upper-left corner of the assessment. If you want to see what this looks like for students, check out this article.

Advanced Assessment Preview

You can preview an advanced assessment while you are in the builder; select Preview in the upper right-hand corner.

Select Start

The view you see will be the exact view the students will have. *Note - the TextHelp Toolbar shows by default, but it will not appear on the student's side unless enabled when the assessment is assigned
You can input answers, but nothing will be saved or submitted

While editing an Advanced Assessment, you can also Preview each question as you build. The advantage here is that you can also verify scoring.

While editing any question, select Preview.
The score bubble will turn green if you've entered the correct answer(s).
