What are the IRAT Optional Settings? – InteDashboard

This article explains the features found during your IRAT activity setup.

The IRAT Optional settings can be found in the Stage 4 of your IRAT or IRAT&TRAT activity setup. To get to this stage of the setup, start by Creating an Activity on your course dashboard.

The different options in this step of your activity setup are explained in detail below:

Enable Immediate Feedback

This option when toggled to YES will give the students instant feedback (as seen in the image below) as to whether or not their answers are right or wrong. This feature emulates the practice done in TRATs where students can have multiple attempts until they get the correct answer.

NOTE: Enabling this option disables the Confidence-Based Testing option and Allow students to change answers before final submission is automatically locked to YES.

Confidence-Based Testing

This option, when turned on, allows students to distribute points across the various answer options (image showing what students see). When this option is turned off, students only have to click on one answer option and save their answers. Enabling this option disables the Enable Immediate Feedback option.

NOTE: The total number of points equals the number of answer options. So if there are 4 answer options, the students have 4 points to distribute across all answer options.

Allow students to change answers before final submission

This option when turned to YES allows students to go back to previous questions and change their answers before submitting.

Students must answer questions in sequence

This option when turned on, allows students to move from one question to the next in a progression without skipping questions.

Randomize answer options order

This option when turned on, shuffles the remaining answer options for each student while maintaining the position for the correct answer option in each question.
