e-Assessment Administration: Assessment management
Assessment Management Configuration Tab
Assessment management includes configuring the assessment mode and setting up assessment inspection. Both can be enabled or disabled separately here.
Assessment mode tab
As an administrator, you can view an overview of all assessment modes created in your OpenOlat instance.
Safe Exam Browser Configuration Tab
Manage Safe Exam Browser configuration templates that can be applied to assessment modes.
Template list in the SEB Configuration tab
The template list shows all created SEB configuration templates with various columns that can be configured individually via the gear icon.
The Type column shows whether a template is a Form (configured in OpenOlat) or an imported SEB-File.
If no template has been created yet, the message is displayed: "No Safe Exam Browser configuration templates have been created yet."
Adding / editing a template
Use the "Create template" button to create a new SEB configuration template. Open existing templates with "Edit template" in the three-dot menu. The form contains all existing settings of the Safe Exam Browser as well as the required field:
Name
Required field for naming the template.
Status
Defines whether the template is selectable for authors: Active or Inactive.
Import SEB-File
We distinguish two types of templates:
- Form: The configuration is maintained via the individual fields of the form in OpenOlat (as described under "Create template").
- SEB-File: A complete, unencrypted
.seb configuration fileis imported and covers the full range of Safe Exam Browser functionality.
For the import, use the "Import SEB-File" action. OpenOlat reads the configuration from the file, displays it read-only, and calculates the config key automatically. The file must not be encrypted or password-protected.
For an SEB-File template, the following are additionally available:
SEB source file
The imported .seb file.
Information for authors
An optional text shown to authors when using the template in the assessment mode.
Setting the default template
Exactly one template must be marked as the default. Use the "Set as default" action to define a different template as the default. The default template is automatically pre-selected as soon as the Safe Exam Browser is switched on in the assessment mode.
Activating / deactivating templates
Deactivated templates are no longer available for selection when configuring an assessment mode.
Deleting templates
A template can only be deleted if it is no longer in use: Column Uses = 0. Otherwise the template can be deactivated.
Safe Exam Browser Versions Tab
Enforce minimal SEB version
Via this tab, you can require a minimal version of the Safe Exam Browser instance-wide. This is helpful if versions below a certain SEB version should not be permitted.
Activate "Enforce minimal SEB version". Then set the required version separately per operating system:
Minimal version Windows
Required minimum version for participants who start the Safe Exam Browser on Windows.
Minimal version Mac
Required minimum version for participants who start the Safe Exam Browser on Mac.
Minimal version iOS
Required minimum version for participants who start the Safe Exam Browser on iOS.
If a participant starts an exam with an older version, the exam is not released; a prompt appears to update the Safe Exam Browser.
