How to effectively set up the Form before taking the test

Pre-test forms help teachers collect participant information before they start the test. This feature is particularly useful for public tests or participants who are not yet in a class.

Enable Information Collection Form

1. Open the test you are editing.
2. Open the Advanced Settings section.
3. Find the Pre-test form section.
4. Enable Information collection form.
5. Enter the field name in the Display label box, such as:
   
• Full name.
• Student ID.
• Class.
• Email.
• Phone number.
• Work unit.

1. Select the appropriate data type.
2. Turn on Required if participants must provide the information.
3. Select Add field to include more content.
4. Review the Form before publishing.

Field types

Single line (text)

Used to collect short content on a single line.

Example: Full name, student ID, class name, or unit.

Multi-line

Used when participants need to enter long content.

Example: Address, notes, reason for participation, or additional information.

Email

Used to collect email addresses. The system can check the format before allowing the user to continue.

Example: name@example.com.

Number

Used only for numeric data.

Example: Exam number, years of experience, or quantity.

Note: Do not use this type for data that may start with a zero, such as student IDs or phone numbers.

Phone

Used to collect the participant's phone number.

Date

Allows participants to select a specific date.

Example: Date of birth, registration date, or course participation date.

Dropdown list

Allows participants to select a value from a pre-set list.

Example:

• Class 10A, 10B, or 10C.
• Hanoi, Da Nang, or Ho Chi Minh City campus.
• Basic, Intermediate, or Advanced level.

This field type helps keep data consistent and limits input errors.

Set required fields

Enable Required for information needed before participants start the test. If a required field is not filled, the participant will not be able to continue.

It is recommended to set identification information such as name, student ID, or email as required. Non-essential information should be left optional.

Add or delete fields

• Select Add field to create an additional information field.
• Click the trash can icon next to a field to delete it.
• Double-check before deleting as the data set for that field may not be recoverable.

Example Form for a public test

Teachers can set up:

1. Full name – Single line – Required.
2. Email – Email – Required.
3. Phone number – Phone – Optional.
4. Class/Unit – Dropdown list – Required.
5. Notes – Multi-line – Optional.

Notes

• Only collect information that is truly necessary for the purpose of organizing the test.
• Do not request passwords, financial information, or sensitive data.
• Participants should be informed about the purpose of data collection and usage.
• If the test is deployed by class, the system already has account information, so there is no need to ask students to re-enter too much data.
• Set clear field labels and avoid using generic names like “Information 1”.
• You should preview the Form on both computers and phones before publishing.
