How To Answer the IRAT Activity

Choose your answer and click the "Save My Answer" button: 

• Remember to click the "Save My Answer" button to record your answer to this question.
• You can click the page numbers on top to navigate through the questions.
• You can also see if you have completed a question (meaning you've saved an answer to the question) on the QUESTIONS STATUS left bar.

How To Answer the TRAT Activity

With TRATs, the team reporter takes the screen and answers the question for the team. Team members will still be able to see the question on their own devices, but only the team reporter can save an answer and submit the test.

• Similar to the IRAT, the team reporter can select an answer and click the "Save My Answer" button to commit to the chosen answer.
• If your answer is incorrect, it will be marked with a red X mark.

Keep answering until you get the correct answer:

• The team should continue selecting answers until they arrive at the correct one, indicated by a green check mark.
• This question will be marked "Completed" once you get the correct answer.

Assign others as reporter:

• The Team Reporter can assign others to be the team-reporter.
• If the Team Reporter is not assigned by the instructor, whoever enters the test first is automatically made Team Reporter.
• In the same way, a team-member can "Takeover as the reporter" on their side.

Clarifications:

1. The team-reporter can bookmark the question by clicking the bookmark icon.
2. The team can also request for a clarification about any question in the TRAT.

• Click "+Add Clarification" button.
• Upload a clarification file or type your clarification question/statement in the box.
• Click "Save Clarification" to save it.
