Section 1: Instructor, Course, and Student Information

  1. On the referral form, select whether the test is Make-up (face-to-face), Online, or Hybrid. (This releases the course list according to the course type. If this is left unchecked, you will not see your course in the list.)

  3. Under Term, select the term for which the test is required from the pull down menu. You may have to wait for the page to refresh, and this may take a few moments.

  6. Under Students, you can identify the student(s) you need a cover sheet for by one of the following methods:
    • To identify a single student, use the small up and down arrows to locate and then highlight, by mouse clicking once, the name of the student.
    • To identify all students or several non-contiguous students, click on the icon to the right of the field. The student list with check boxes will appear. Check the students participation, then click the submit button.
  7. Under Test ID, give the test a name or enter a description. Use a simple name for your test, for example: Test 5 or Midterm. (AVOID using any special characters, such as &,*,?,%,@,?, as these may cause some problems.)
  8. Under Time Limit (Max 4hrs), set a time limit for taking the test. If you choose to give a time limit, you must do so using time markings (example: 2 hours or 2.5 hours). If you choose not to give a time limit, please type none.
  9. Under Date for Completion, enter the last date that the student is allowed to take the test (you may use the calendar link.)
    (Please note: The Blank Form button at the top left of the screen, allows for the printing of a blank form should you want to complete one or more cover sheets by hand. This button takes you directly to Step 16 below.)

  2. After the cover sheet(s) have been generated, you have the following options:
    • View: Will open a new window for printing cover sheets. Once the window opens with the document preview, use the browser menu and choose File and select Print. When printing more than one cover sheet, you may need to set the margins to accommodate the particular printer you are using.
      • To print to the printer in the CTE, set the bottom margin to .955 to ensure each sheet prints on its own page.
      • To print to other printers you may need to adjust your margins similarly through trial and error to ensure each sheet prints on its own page.
    • Send: The Assessment Center will accept Cover Sheets only via email (lcc_online_testing@lcc.edu).

Please note: Be sure to read the Assessment Center policy on accepting emailed Cover Sheets and check the Agree box.
