You can easily create an exam form directly from an item bank using this action whether or not you have made the exam already. You must publish all items you want to include before performing the below steps. Follow the directions here (https://prolydian.ladesk.com/946754-Publishing-Item-Changes) for more information on how to publish items.
- Log into your Prolydian account at https://app.prolydian.com and go to Exams > Items. Select the correct item bank
- Filter the items as desired, or leave them unfiltered
- Click Select All and then Select all that match this filter or choose individual items to select
- Click the drop down arrow next to “X items selected” and choose “Build exam form”
- Enter a form name (this will only be visible internally, not shown to examinees)
- Choose your randomization settings
- Choose a linked test or if your item bank is not yet linked to one click “Create new exam” and follow the exam setup wizard
After the exam form is created you can view and edit it by clicking "Manage test," which takes you directly to the exam design page located at Exams > Exams > "Your exam" > Design tab; or select "Finish" to remain in your item bank.
Alternatively exam forms can be created directly from the exam design page as detailed here: https://prolydian.ladesk.com/981403-Creating-a-new-form
