Testing System: Great care has been taken to ensure the strongest possible testing system for the new edition of Elementary Statistics. Not only is there a printed test bank, there is also a computerized test generator, TestGen4.0 and Quizmaster3.0, that lets you view and edit testbank questions, transfer them to tests, and print in a variety of formats. The program also offers many options for organizing and displaying test banks and tests. A built-in random number and test generator makes TestGen-EQ ideal for creating multiple versions of tests and provides more possible test items than printed testbank questions. Powerful search and sort functions let the instructor easily locate questions and arrange them in the preferred order. Users can export tests as text files so they can be viewed with a Web browser. Additionally, tests created with TestGen can be used with QuizMaster, which enables students to take exams on a computer network. QuizMaster automatically grades the exams, stores results on disk, and allows the instructor to view or print a variety of reports for individual students, classes, or courses. Printed Testbank ISBN: 0-321-12214-3; TestGen-EQ for Mac and Windows ISBN: 0-321-12213-5.
