  • Publication number: 20160098939
    Abstract: An online test platform facilitates representing a test taker with an interactive test taker icon. The platform may include administrator interfaces, test proctor interfaces, and test taker interfaces to allow each participant to view, navigate, and interact with aspects of the online test platform that are intended to meet their needs. The test platform allows representation of test takers via an interactive test taker icon. An icon represents the test taker on a display available to a teacher or proctor to monitor the status of the test taker while an online test is being administered. The display and the test taker icon may be used to represent a status of the test taker and may also be used to update the test taker status. In one example, the status of the test taker may be updated by remote polling of the test taker's station via a remote server.
