Overview
Test Intro Pages allow you to add directions, example questions, or helpful visuals that students will see before beginning an assessment. This article walks through how to create, edit, preview, and manage a Test Intro Page for assessments you have authored in ESGI.
Note: Test Intro Pages can only be added to tests you own or have copied, and copied tests do not retain prior student data. You can only create Test Intro Pages for tests you have authored (see Image 1). If you want to use a system test or a Noted Author test, you need to make a copy of it first, which will make you the author. Then, you can add a Test Intro Page. It's important to remember that when you make a copy of an assessment, only the questions will be copied, not the test data. So, if students have already taken the test, their data won't transfer to the new copy.
