SAM Challenge: Your Placement Test Solution

SAM 2010 can be used to help manage campus-wide computer competency testing. Whether you use SAM Challenge to test-in, test-out or placement-test your incoming students, you will be aware of what they know and what they don’t know!

SAM Challenge exams can be created to match a set of objectives for a test-out or even match the goals of a particular course. In addition to simulated, hands-on performance-based tasks, SAM exams may also include objective-based questions…whatever you choose, you are in control!

SAM Challenge gives you and your students:

• The ability to work in a simulated environment that closely mirrors the Office 2010 software.
• The flexibility to create exams based on YOUR course/curriculum objectives.
• A combination of hands-on tasks as well as objective-based questions in the same assignment.
• The ability to have students review (or not review) their results, upon completion of the exam. You have full control over when the results are visible, if at all.
