Click here to try the new online Beta site which is now ready for trial testing. We are inviting everyone to help us beat on
this new system to make sure all the bugs are out and to make suggestions on final additions to the format. We highly recommend using Mozilla Firefox as a browser with this test site. It is available for free as a download. Bug reporting is a very simple process now by clicking on the "Bug" icon. This sends us an email which targets the question ID# for quick solutions. Username and Password from the current online study will not work. You must create a new temporary user account.
The score history is now fully functional. Remember that even though you are online while you are choosing which test to take when you click on "take test" and "ok" the quiz is actually
temporarily loaded to your computer which makes the quizzes run much faster than the old system. This new format will eventually take the place of the "TesTTaker" software in that what you see online is what you will get for software when it becomes available. As of 24 Feb 2010 we have fixed the problem with the references and the tables in the reference cells now line up properly. Also I have started adding hyperlinks directly to the reference cells. The illustrations now are opening in a new window which seems to work much better.. Please let me know if you have any problems with the login process.
