A Log-In page will appear that asks for a password. Any unique number, word, or combination of both will work. If the program cannot find this password in the RoboTutor database, it will next ask for your name. Be sure and click the box below that says: Check here to enter a NEW NAME. Next you will be asked to confirm your password. Then the test will begin. If you click Tryout Test you can avoid the hassle of entering a name and password. And if you use this option, no records are kept. It is simply for trying the test. If you click Test Menu you will get a menu of all the tests in this Test Area. Click on one of them, log-in, and take the test. You can save the URL from your browser address bar and use it in other web pages for your students to link to the test.

When the Custom Links Wizard opens, go with the defaults and click Submit at the bottom. This will create a link directly to a test log-in page.

Copy the URL (both lines) and create a link on another website or your personal computer. Click the Add to Custom Training Menu button. When you return to the Question List page, click the Training Menu link at the bottom. Then click the Tests menu option to open the test.
