- To create a section, hover over the Add New button, and select Section from the drop-down menu.
- Complete the section information:
- Introduction: Enter an introduction and/or student instructions here.
- Time Limit: Select a time limit from the drop-down menu, or choose None if you do not wish to have a time limit.
- Tools: Check the boxes to the left of any tools you would like students to be able to use while in this section of the test.
- If you selected the Calculator tool option, you will be prompted to choose a Simple, Scientific, or Graphing calculator type.
