The Publish Menu - How to get your Respondus file into eLearning

There are numerous sets of Respondus 4.0 instructions "floating" around on the Internet and elsewhere.

Some of these instructions would have you believe that you can use Respondus 4.0 to publish your exam or test bank directly into your course in eLearning.

You can not.

The following instructions will walk you through the process of creating a file that you can import into your course in eLearning.

On your desktop you should now see the Respondus icon: Respondus IconImage Removed , select it. This will open Respondus 4.0.

Select the Open or Create tab in the left column. Then, select the Import Questions icon.

Select the "Type of file:" In this case it should be a Word file (.doc, .docx, or possibly .txt).

...

  1. Don't worry about the questions at this point.
  2. If needed, you can easily edit them later in Respondus 4.0.

...

  1. "File Saved" select OK.

...

  1. Then select "Save Changes," and move to the next question.

...

  1. Generally, (if you have a lot of questions)
  2. If you properly formatted your questions (if you didn't you wouldn't have gotten this far).
  3. And, the first few questions look good, they're probably all good.
  4. Move on!

...

  1. The file name is there (i.e., quiz-1); just ensure that you save the file to a place where you can find it later!
  2. Select "Save"
  3. Select "OK"

...

  1. It should be where you saved it, AND it is a Zip file (i.e., quiz-1.zip).
  2. ALSO, right next to the Zip file is a text file with the same name (i.e., quiz-1.txt).
  3. Open and print the text file.

...
