the stem “Ch1-Unit1-” and questions 21-30 might use the stem “Ch1-Unit2-” and so forth.
Check for Update
The “Check for Update” tool, located on the Help drop-down menu, provides an easy way to see
if an update is available for Respondus (a live Internet connection is required). Respondus will
instantly return a message indicating whether an upgrade is available. If an upgrade to Respondus
is available, you can let Respondus download the required file(s) automatically and update the
software for you. This is the easiest way to apply a patch or upgrade.
Depending on your preference settings, Respondus will automatically check for an update at the
time an exam is published to Moodle (this check will occur only once in a 24-hour period). No
information about your computer hardware and software is collected by Respondus, Inc. during
this process. Instead, the Respondus software retrieves information from www.respondus.com
and will display a message if an update is available. You will then have the choice of upgrading
to the latest version of software.
If you don’t want Respondus to automatically check for software updates during the publishing
step, go to the File menu, select Preferences, and deselect the appropriate checkbox on the
General tab.
