Buzz: Product Feedback

Sara was giving tests today that contain a link that allows another window to open up with the pdf of a reading passage that the students need for the test.

This test was written in BH using the Advanced Editor.  The code looked like this:

Type: MC
Score: 1
1) [HTML]<div>READING COMPREHENSION: Click <a href="[~]/2nd%20Nine%20Weeks/Stage%206/Stage6TestStory.pdf?attachment=1" target="_blank">here</a> to access the reading passage. You may keep the reading passage open for questions 1-15.</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Where are Caecilius and Metella going?</div>[/HTML]

This worked fine in BrainHoney, but student received an error when they tried to click on the link in Buzz.

We learned that if we eliminated this portion ?attachment=1 then it would work in Buzz just as it had worked in BrainHoney.

So, this works:

Type: MC
Score: 1
1) [HTML]<div>READING COMPREHENSION: Click <a href="[~]/2nd%20Nine%20Weeks/Stage%206/Stage6TestStory.pdf" target="_blank">here</a> to access the reading passage. You may keep the reading passage open for questions 1-15.</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Where are Caecilius and Metella going?</div>[/HTML]

Both versions worked fine for the teacher when previewing the test in Buzz which is why she didn't realize there was a problem.  The first version didn't work for the students in Buzz.  The second version did work for us using a test enrollment that had been created via BH.

Hope this helps,
