Creating an IQSet

The steps to create an IQSet are described below. We recommend using a spreadsheet program like Microsoft Excel to export a CSV file. Use the iqset_template.csv or iqset_template.xls to create your own IQSets.

  1. Open iqset_template.xls using Excel, Libre Office, or Open Office.
  2. Modify the Session details for Teacher Name, Session “Title”, and Group Name.
  3. Modify the Question answer sets, with one question per row
  4. “Save As” a .csv file, using Charset = UTF-8, Field Delimiter = comma, and Text Delimiter = double quotes
  5. You should have a valid IQSet ready to load.
  6. Go to main menu to Upload an IQSet

This will be the most difficult step to complete.

Viewing IQSessions

An IQSession is just a term for the in-class inquiry session. Any time you run a session to completion (by hitting Show Results), the session will be saved automatically using session details provided on the setup. You can review this information as a way to understand the progress of your class, or to check the records for particular students.
