Copy Paper

There are two ways of copying a paper.  The first option is to copy the paper only and link to the original questions in the bank.  This means that any changes to these questions in any other papers will be reflected in the new copy.  It also means that locked questions remain so.

The alternative is to copy the paper and the questions.  New questions identical to the originals are created and may be changed independently, even if the originals are locked.  The link between paper and question is now unique to that paper until other papers start to reference the questions.


The dialog shows these options along with others:

Copy Name should be changed to differentiate the copy from existing papers.  The type may be changed depending upon the existing type of the paper.

From 7.2 you can also copy any existing standard settings to the new paper.

The Start Date and the Finish Date get set to 30+ days from present, to prevent copies  of locked papers from instantly locking.

If you are copying a summative paper, clicking Next>> shows this dialog:

You will need to fill in any fields as required.  Then click Copy Paper.

Rogo copies the paper and performs some checks on the correctness of the name. In this case it has flagged up an error with the session:

Copy Question From Paper

Alternatively you can copy all the questions from a paper into the current paper.


Delete Paper

Removes the paper from the system. Recoverable via the recycle bin.

Retire Paper

Retiring a paper hides it from general access.  It does not delete the paper.

You have the option of just retiring the paper, or retiring the paper and its questions.  Retired papers do not show in a module's papers, but their visibility can be toggled:

Print Hardcopy Version

Used to obtain a printed copy of the paper.  Can page break per question.  Has major limitations for interactive question types. 

As of Rogo 7.1 users have the choice to print with or without question notes.


Import/Export

Allows import and export of questions to external files:  QTI and Rogo format are currently supported.


View Student Cohort

From Rogo 7.1. The student cohort link will be displayed on all papers that are restricted to a year. It will list the students that will be able to sit the paper (taking into account any meta data restrictions on the paper).
