1. Knowledge base materials are used for training processes and document familiarization.

2. General Structure of the Knowledge Base:

• Shelves - materials are added to shelves. Shelves are not a mandatory component, meaning materials can be added without shelves.

3. The following types of materials can be created in the knowledge base:

• Materials displayed on the screen:
  • PDF files;
  • Longread (combination of text, audio, video, images);
  • Media resource (video, audio);
  • SCORM package;
  • cforj;
  • H5P.
• Materials downloaded to the user's device:
  • Files (any files);
• Links.

• For units only. Shelf visibility can be restricted to specific units.

3. To publish the shelf, activate the slider Publish and click Save.

1. Content Stage

At this step, the moderator determines the form and content of the future material.

2. "Settings" Stage

Here, access parameters and material classification in the system are set:

3. "Approval" Stage

The final (optional) stage allows you to configure a chain of checks before publishing the material:

Knowledge base materials can exist as standalone units or be part of a collection. courses, programsAfter successfully passing all approval stages and obtaining the necessary approvals, Material becomes available to users in the section "My Materials".

Any Material can be assigned to employees through the module. Purposes.

After assigning Material, it will appear in the user's Personal Account under the My Materials tab in Section Assigned. 

Material can be added to the Course program.

Materials that include: video, PDF, SCORM - can be viewed immediately upon opening, while other materials - by downloading to the device or opening in a separate browser window.

The materials include an element that allows tracking of material review - a checkmark at the top with the label "Reviewed".

The materials have the following statuses:

• By creation: published; draft.
• Upon completion: Passed; Not Passed; Not Started; In Progress.

The "Programs" module is designed for creating comprehensive development programs. For example, New Employee Onboarding, Learning talent pool development, and others. Using this program, you can create any learning and development scenario.

Programs can be formed from the following modules:

• knowledge base materials,
• опросы,
• courses,
• tests,
• lessons,
• Activities that may include events or tasks with checklists.

Programs can be completed sequentially and in parallel. That is, unlike courses where all modules are completed sequentially, programs can have multiple stages (levels, tiers) with their own sequential modules. For example, Program might look as follows:

• Stage 1
  • Module 1.1.1., Module 1.1.2...
  • Module 1.2.1., Module 1.2.2., Module 1.2.3....
• Stage 2
  • Module 2.1
  • Module 2.2
  • Module 2.3

etc.

Difference between a course and a program:

1. Stage "BASIC"

In the first step, the moderator sets the basic parameters and visual design of the program:

• Identificationindicates mandatory Program nameis selected Logo (Cover) from the media library and is set Subject (Using the # sign before a word turns it into a tag).
• ClassificationProgram is bound to a specific Catalog section for user navigation convenience.
• DescriptionFields are filled in "Program objective" (short expected result) "Program Description" (Full text for participants).

2. "CONTENTS" Stage

This stage is dedicated to design. Program Structurewhich may consist of several stages.

• Formation of stagesA moderator can create sequential learning blocks using the button. "+ Add stage"For each stage, you can specify a name (for example, "Stage 1").
• Module populationYou can add any educational components to the program by switching between tabs in the right panel:
  • Courses, Tests, Lessons;
  • Activities (tasks or activities);
  • Materials knowledge bases (with shelf search);
  • Surveys.
• ManagementThe selected modules are displayed on the left side of the screen within a specific stage. The moderator can delete them (the "x" icon) or configure the access period in days.

Attention! Only published modules are displayed in these sections. Draft modules are not shown here. 

• Each module can be assigned a training period in days. By Default each module has 0 days. The system will automatically calculate the program completion date when the start date is set during program assignment. After the availability period expires, Program will disappear from the user's personal account.

• If Program is assigned, it cannot be modified. An assigned program can be unpublished and moved to the archive. Once moved to the archive, Program will disappear from the personal accounts of those to whom it was assigned.

3. "SETTINGS" Stage

The final stage defines the rules of passage and the system's logic:

• GamificationThe moderator activates point accrual. Two calculation methods are available: summation of points from all nested modules or manual entry fixed sum for the entire program.
• Feedback Form (FF)The toggle allows you to enable the mandatory Survey, which the user must complete after finishing the entire program.
• Method of opening modulesdetermines the rigidity of the educational pathway:
  • FreeAccess to all modules and stages is open immediately.
  • Sequentially (gently)Modules open sequentially, even if the previous one was not Passed successfully.
  • Sequentially (strictly)The next module will not open until the current one is successfully Finished.

To navigate between stages, use the "Back" and "Next" buttons located at the bottom of the interface. The programs in which the user participates are displayed in their personal account in the section "My Programs".

Program Removal. Any program can be deleted. Any assignments that were made and the results of their completion will also be deleted. Deleted programs, assignments, and their completion results cannot be restored.

Copying the programCreate a copy to quickly make an identical program.

Archive transferAny program can be moved to the archive, including published ones. When moved to the archive, it will disappear from users' personal accounts.

1. Programs are available for self-assignment through Catalog programs or can be assigned by a moderator (via templates or manually).

2. All assigned programs are available to the learner in Personal Account, under the My Programs tab - Assigned.

3. As the program progresses, it remains in the Assigned tab. Upon completion of all modules, Program moves to the Completed tab.

4. To open the module - click on it, it will open in a new window. 

To obtain the status for a lesson/material Passed It is absolutely necessary to press the button. Complete the module in the lesson or Acknowledged in the material. If you do not press the corresponding element, but close or proceed to the next module, then Status will remain Not Passed.

5. After successful completion of all modules Status, the entire program will automatically become like Passed.

6. The "Me Observer" tab contains programs where the employee is selected as the Program Manager.

In this tab, you can track the Status program execution in real time.

Programs have the following statuses:

• Status publication: published; draft (saved without publishing).
• Success statuses: passed; Not Passed; In Progress. Passed means all modules have been completed.
• Statuses by assignment: Self-Enrollment - self-initiated start of completion, assigned - assigned by the application moderator.

Program completion results are available to: moderators, limited-rights moderators, and program observers:

• To the Observer - in the "My Programs - I Observer" section.
• Moderator:
  • When assigning a program as a moderator - in the "Assignments - Program Results" section or in "Reports - Programs".
  • When self-assigning in "Reports - Programs".

Question: Course Finished, but the report shows that Course Not Passed.

Answer:

Check if all modules with status "Passed" have been passed. Update the application via the Browser.

If all modules are in the passed status, but Course remains in the "Not Passed" status, please contact support.

Question: How to hide Course from users?

Answer:

All courses when published By Default are available to everyone for self-enrollment in the course catalog. Self-Assignment means an employee opens Course and completes it without being assigned by a moderator.

Each Course can be restricted in availability:

• By adding it to a group (for Bitrix24 and if the functionality is available). Course will only be accessible to group members).
• Via settings during creation:
  • hide completely from all - hide in directory,
  • make available to specific departments.
    

If Course is hidden via settings and then assigned, those to whom it is assigned will see it via their Personal Account My Courses - Assigned. All others will still not see it.

Question: Is it possible to grant access to a course/test to specific employees rather than the entire department?

Answer:

Currently not available, only for the department. This option is under development, and in the near future, it will be possible to grant access to a course or test to specific employees. To do this, when creating a course, you will need to specify the employees who will be granted access to the course/test.

Question: Why does Status not change for a course when an employee has completed it?

Answer:

Courses have the following statuses:

• Status publications:
  • published;
  • draft (saved without publishing).
• Passing statuses:
  • Not Started. Start button not pressed in the course.
  • In Progress. Start button pressed in the course, but not all modules are completed.
  • Passed. Passed - all modules completed. Tests with status "Passed" (successfully), all lessons/materials viewed (Complete or Acknowledged button pressed). If the Complete Module button in the lesson is not pressed, then Lesson Not Passed, if the Acknowledged element in the material is not pressed, then Material Not Passed.
  • Not Passed. Indicates that one of the modules Not Passed: Test, Lesson (the Complete button is not pressed), Material (the Acknowledged element is not pressed).
• Statuses by Purpose:
  • Self-Enrollment - the employee clicked on Pass Learning,
  • appointed - appointed as the application moderator.

If Status of course Not Started or In Progress, it means that one of the modules within course Not Passed:

• Not Passed Test;
• Not Passed Lesson (Finish Module button pressed in the lesson);
• Not Passed Material (the Acknowledged element in the material is pressed).

After successful completion of all modules Status, the course automatically changes to Passed. 

Question: Why can't employees see Catalog courses, Catalog tests, the knowledge base?

Answer:

If employees cannot see Catalog courses or Catalog tests or the knowledge base, while the moderator can see them, this means that the corresponding Catalog is hidden from employees in the settings.

Catalogs are hidden in the section: Moderator - Application Settings - Other. Modules can also be disabled: Moderator - System Management - Modules.

Question: How is Course created and what can it consist of?

Answer:

Course in the Brusnika.LMS system can consist of any number and sequence of lessons, tests, materials, and surveys. When creating a course, the name, objective, duration (filled in automatically), a textual description of the program are specified, and at least one module (Lesson or Material) is added. Course cannot consist of only one test; in this case, Test is published directly in the test catalog. Modules for the course are selected from published lessons, tests, and materials.

Answer: What are the main settings available when creating a course?

Answer:

When creating a course, numerous settings are available:

• Image: Course card image.

• Comments and certificates: Allows users to leave comments and issues Certificate after successful completion.
• Feedback Form (FF): Displayed after completing the course.
• Points: Individual scoring for Course can be calculated by summing module scores or entered manually.
• Hidden in catalog: Course may be hidden from public access but available by moderator assignment.
• Availability by departments: Restriction access to the course for employees of selected departments.
• Access to modules opening: Sequential or simultaneous module opening, with the possibility of a condition for successful completion of the previous module.
• Time on Completion and number of attempts: Restriction by time and number of course completions.
• Availability Period: Indication of the deadline until which Course is available.

Answer: What is the difference between linear and tree-like course representation?

Answer:

Course in the appendix Brusnika.LMS can be presented in two forms:

• Linear representation: The course modules are arranged sequentially. Course is assembled by dragging lessons, tests, and materials in a specific order. You can change the color of module cards, add separators for thematic blocks, and edit module names.
• Tree view: Allows creating a more complex structure with sub-levels. After activating this mode, you can drag modules into the "Program course" area and create dividers, inside which you can also add modules, forming a hierarchical structure.

Question: When creating a course, program, or searching for a lesson/test, the system does not find it, even though Lesson/Test is published.

Answer:

Check if the search data is entered correctly.

Question: How can I find out at which stage of the course the students are currently, what has been completed and what hasn't?

Answer:

To obtain detailed analytics on the completion status of each module, it is necessary to generate the "Module Completion Status" report."employees-courses".

Question: Publish Test does not give

Answer:

If the Publish button is not active, check the following options:

• One of the required fields (name, time on Test, passing Score) is not filled;
• Specific symbols have been entered in the test name (e.g., a snowboarder emoji);
• Questions not added;
• No correct answers selected;
• No reviewers selected for open questions (if any);
• In the test catalog, there is Test with the same name.

Question: The test is not in the My Tests section

Answer:

Test falls into Section My tests in the following cases:

• The user started taking the Test test from the test catalog. Test will be added to Section Completed or In Progress attempts.
• Test is assigned to the user (not as part of a course or program, but as a separate Test). It appears in Section Assigned.
• Test and the user have been added to the same group (for Bitrix 24).

If the user does not see Test in their personal account under My Tests, the following scenarios are possible:

• Not Startedabout Completion.
• Test is included in the course. Then it will be in the My Tests section.
• Test in the program, then it will be in the My Programs section.
• Test is included in the Group (for Bitrix 24). Then Test will be available in the My Groups section.

Question: The user does not see Test in the test catalog

Answer:

If the user does not see Test in the test catalog, the following options are possible:

• Test in the course. Then Test will be in the course catalog.
• Test in the program. Then Test will be in the program directory.
• Test in the group (for Bitrix 24). Then Test will see the test catalog only the members of this group.
• Test is hidden in settings when creating a test: hidden in the catalog or available only to specific users.
• Availability Period test has expired. When creating a test, you can specify Availability Period after which Test will not be available in the catalog.

Question: Is it possible to add 100 or more questions to Test?

Answer:

Yes, you can add any number of questions to Test. There are no restrictions.

Question: How to make Test with answer options Yes, No?

Answer:

Enter the answer option Yes, enter the answer option No and select Correct Answer.

Question: How to hide Test?

Answer:

By Default all tests are open and accessible to all employees in the tests directory when published. Tests can be hidden or their availability restricted in the following ways.

When creating a test in test settings:

• Hide in the test catalog. Test no one will see it. If assigned, it will be visible to employees to whom it is assigned in the My Tests section.
• Restrict availability for specific departments (employees). In this case, Test will only be accessible to selected employees.
• Availability Period. When creating a test, select its availability period. After the availability period ends, Test will be hidden in the catalog.
• Add to group (for Bitrix24). If Test is added to a group in the application (linked to a Bitrix24 group), then Test in the catalog will only be visible to members of that group.

Question: Does the case sensitivity (uppercase, lowercase letters) matter for substitution questions?

Answer:

No, it does not take into account.

Question: Where can I view the test results?

Answer:

Different roles can view test results in different sections:

• Moderator The application allows you to view test results in reports: Settings - Reports.
• Moderator with limited permissions, manager The employee can view it in the reports. The reports will be located in the left menu of the personal account.
• Employee who has passed the testIf the test option is selected where the employee can view results, they will be presented in the My Tests section when the test is expanded. Additionally, the employee can generate reports, but only for themselves.

Question: Tests have disappeared from the test catalog. I cannot see the tests in the test catalog. I am a moderator. Where did they disappear?

Answer:

Update your browser. If the tests do not appear, they were likely deleted by another moderator. The LMS system does not provide for and does not allow the deletion of tests.

Question: The employee completed Test, where can I view the test results?

Answer:

Test results can be viewed in different locations, depending on the role of the person planning to view the test results: Testee, the manager of the test taker, the moderator.

Testee.

An employee who has taken the test can view the test results in two places:

• My tests - "Completed" or In Progress tab. Open the required Test, results will be displayed. The detail level of results will depend on the settings chosen during test creation.
• Reports. In the My Profile and Progress tab. You can build any reports only for yourself; other employees cannot be selected.

Employee's supervisor.

• Reports. In the My Profile and Progress tab. You can build any reports there. When selecting employees, a manager can choose any of their subordinates.

Moderator.

• Learning Management - Reports. A moderator can generate any reports for any employees.

1. Courses may consist of the following modules:

• Lesson,
• Test,
• Material,
• Survey.

In any quantity and any sequence.

Course cannot consist of a single test. If it is necessary to Publish a single Test, it can be published directly in the test catalog. Meanwhile, Course can consist of a single lesson or a single material.

2. The layout and Completion of the course are sequential. In the extended course creation settings, you can set conditions for opening modules.

3. Course can be part of a program. It will be located in the My Programs section or in the Program Catalog, within the program it has been added to.

Do not enter special characters in the fields, such as the snowboarder emoji.

Nika.AI Course Builder - This is an intelligent tool in the moderator's dashboard that allows creating the structure and content of training courses using artificial intelligence. The process is divided into four sequential steps, and a preview window is always available on the right side of the screen. "Nika.AI Context"where the AI assistant provides hints and confirms actions.

At the top of the interface, the neural network usage limits are displayed: the total limit, the amount of resources already used, and the remaining balance.

Step 1: Course Basics

At this stage, the fundamental parameters of the future training are determined.

Step 2: Type and Competencies

The moderator configures the course's methodological framework.

Step 3: Format and Volume

Technical structure and content styling setup:

Step 4: Sources and Limitations

Final adjustments before generation:

Generation result

After pressing the button "Generate Course" The system prepares the project. The preview window displays the finished course card with its title, objective, target audience, and list of competencies. The moderator can review the result, make edits, or refresh the generation if necessary.

Ready-made Course can be Publish in the Course Catalog. 

Section "Quick Course Creation" The moderator's office is designed for the rapid assembly of educational content using only the basic settings. In this mode, the moderator can quickly define the learning structure and populate it with modules.

1. Main parameters and structure

The process begins with filling in the basic information on the constructor's main page:

2. Filling the program with modules

At the bottom of the section, there are buttons for adding various educational elements in any quantity:

3. Completion of creation

The interface provides quick actions in the upper right part of the screen:

This tool minimizes the number of steps, allowing a moderator to assemble a complete Course, consisting of lessons, tests, and materials, on a single page.

Section "Advanced Course Creation" In the moderator's office, a complete set of tools is provided for the detailed configuration of the educational process. The creation process is divided into four sequential stages: "Basics", "Structure", "Settings", and "Check".

1. "Basics" Stage

At this step, the information base of the course is established:

Select competenceTwo options are possible:

1. When Competence is selected, to which not tied developmental activities in the competency module.
2. When Competence is selected, to which attached developmental activities in the competency module.

In the first case, when adding a competency, it will serve as information. In the second case, the system will generate an individual development plan:

• when activating the element "Generate IDP when not achieving the passing score",
• if the passing score is not achieved in the tests.

2. "Structure" Stage

The moderator creates a training program by adding topics and modules.

3. "Settings" Stage

Here, the rules for access and the conditions for completing the course are defined:

Issue CertificateUpon activation, the system will prompt you to select a Certificate, which is configured in advance. Upon successful completion of the course, the system will automatically generate a Certificate, and it will be available in the My Certificates section.

Feedback Form. При активации Регулярного опроса, после прохождения курса будет выведена анкета обратной связи. Анкету обратной связи (Feedback Form) можно настроить в разделе Создание опроса - создать регулярный Survey, привязанный к курсу.

PointsIn this case, it is not a pass-through Score, but a Score within the gamification system.

By Default for Completion course, points are awarded as set in the general application settings (Settings - Application Settings - Points). If nothing is set in the general settings and this specific setting, no points will be awarded. If you activate this element, the course will have individual point accrual.

When activated, the following options appear:

• Calculate by summing points for modules. The application will calculate each module (Lesson and Test) and output the total Score for Course.
• Enter manually - the number of points for Course is entered manually.

Award points for modules:

• To accrue. That is, points will be accrued for Course and separately for each module. 
• Do not accrue. Points will only be awarded for Course.

Hide in catalog. When Course is activated, it will be hidden from users in the catalog and cannot be self-assigned. Course will be available for assignment by a moderator. When Course is assigned, it will be displayed in the employee's personal account under the My Courses section.

For internal use only. When Course is activated, it will only be available to employees from selected departments. Activate and select a department from the structure.

Time on the Completion course.  Course time on Completion is specified in minutes.

Maximum number of attempts. The maximum number of attempts to complete the course is specified. By Default is set to 0 - the number of attempts is unlimited. If attempts are exhausted, then when trying to complete Course, a message will be displayed indicating that the maximum number of attempts has been used. Attempt starts when the Start button is pressed.

Availability Period. When activated, the deadline for course availability is specified. If Availability Period have expired, then when attempting to take Course, a message will be displayed stating that Course does not fall within Availability Period.

4. Stage "Check"

Final screen where the moderator sees the summary of the created course.

IMPORTANT! The lists of lessons, tests, and materials display published lessons, tests, and materials. from the same section which is set for the course.

IMPORTANT! If the catalog contains many lessons/tests/materials/surveys, start typing the name in the search bar. The application will find the required module and leave only it in the list, then you can move it to the field for forming the program.

Section "Import course" The moderator's office is designed for quickly uploading a ready-made course structure or educational package into the system. This automates the learning creation process without manually entering data.

Main features and functionality:

This tool significantly saves time when transferring large volumes of educational data from other systems or when creating large batches of similar courses.

Course can be edited, deleted, copied, imported, exported (from the course catalog):

• Course is copied entirely. The word "_Copy" is added to the name. The copied Course is added to Catalog in the Draft status.
• Course can be exported and imported in Excel or Udata format. Choice export/import format is configured in the Settings-Other-Export Format section.
• When Course is deleted, it is permanently removed and cannot be restored.

Features of course completion:

• At each new course start, the system records a new one. attemptThe number of course attempts may be unlimited (unless Restriction is specified). When generating reports, all attempts can be hidden.
• To obtain the status for a lesson/material Passed It is absolutely necessary to press the button. Complete the module in the lesson or Acknowledged in the material. If you do not press the corresponding element, but close or proceed to the next module, then Status will remain Not Passed.
• After completion of all modules with status Passed Course automatically receives Status Passed.
• If Course is part of the program, it must be searched for in the programs.
• If Course is assigned, it is located in the My Courses - Assigned section. After starting its completion, it will move to Section Completed or In Progress.

Courses have the following statuses:

• Status publications:
  • published;
  • draft (saved without publishing).
• Passing statuses:
  • Not Started. Start button not pressed in the course.
  • In Progress. Start button pressed in the course, but not all modules are completed.
  • Passed. Passed - all modules completed. Tests with status "Passed" (successfully), all lessons/materials viewed (Complete or Acknowledged button pressed). If the Complete Module button in the lesson is not pressed, then Lesson Not Passed, if the Acknowledged element in the material is not pressed, then Material Not Passed.
  • Not Passed. Indicates that one of the modules Not Passed: Test, Lesson (the Complete button is not pressed), Material (the Acknowledged element is not pressed).
• Statuses by Purpose:
  • Self-Enrollment - the employee clicked on Pass Learning,
  • appointed - appointed as the application moderator.

1. Tests in the application can be standalone or built-in In Course, training program, group (for Bitrix 24):

• Independent - are displayed in the test catalog, in the personal account - in the My Tests section.
• Built-in:
  • Embedded in Course, displayed in the course catalog and in the My Courses section within the course.
  • Built into the program, displayed in the program catalog and in the My Programs section within the program.
  • For Bitrix24. If Test is added to a Bitrix Group, they will be displayed in the user's My Groups section, inside the group. The catalog Test will be available only to members of this group.

2. VisibilityTests can have different visibility settings (specified during creation):

• Hide in catalog. Test will be hidden in the catalog, but if assigned, it will be available in the My Tests section.
• For units only. Test will be available to employees of selected units.
  

Availability Period. When this setting is activated, Test will be available in the catalog during the selected period.

3. Methods of addingTest can be added via the interface or by uploading an Excel file. The template for uploading can be downloaded by clicking on the Import element - Download sample xlsx file for import.

Introduction

Test-constructor Nika.AI - This is an intelligent tool in the moderator's dashboard, designed for the automatic generation of test questions based on provided educational materials or open sources on the internet. The test creation process consists of five sequential steps.

1. Key capabilities of the Nika.AI assistant in testing:

• Creating a test from scratch, based on a free-form request;

• Refactoring existing tests into the LMS test structure;

• Creating tests based on uploaded materials.

Creating a test from scratch. Enter the topic, test name in the "Theme test" field, and Nika.AI will generate Test based on open data.

Reprocessingimport. If you have a ready-made Test in Word or Excel, you can use Nika.AI as a test import tool. Upload your Test in the "Sources" field, Nika will analyze it, process it, and present it in the Burson Marsteller LMS test template. 

Document-based creation. You can upload any document in Word or Excel format and write in the Theme field a task to create a test based on the uploaded document: Nika.AI will analyze the document, generate Test based on it, and present it in the Bursniki.LMS test template. 

It is recommended to upload documents not more than 5 MB andmore than 300,000 characters.

Large files:

• increase the processing time;

• do not guarantee the correctness of the analysis;

• reduce the remaining tokens.

2. Automatic phrasing adaptationNika.AI automatically:

• corrects errors in the text;

• eliminates duplicate questions;

• replaces duplicate answer options.

3. Quality of generated tests

Nika.AI uses a probabilistic text generation model. Therefore, every Test created, even from the same query, may differ.

4. Number of tokens per portalEach LMS system is allocated a free monthly limit of 10 thousand tokens. In the upper part of the interface, the moderator can track limits Neural Network Usage: Overall Limit, Resources Used, and Remaining Balance.

Estimated number of tokens consumed:

• One Test with 10 multiple-choice questions = approximately 2 thousand tokens. Without analysis of uploaded documents.

• Analysis of one uploaded document with a volume of ~15,000 characters (approximately 25 pages in 11pt Arial font) will require approximately ~2,000-3,000 tokens.

The limit resets monthly. Accumulation of free tokens does not occur.

5. Acquisition of tokens. Additional tokens can be purchased in the section My Plan - Nika.AI tokens.

6. Personal dataNika.AI does not store personal data.

7. Number of questions in the created test cannot be more than 20If you need a Test with a large number of questions, create several tests and combine them using Excel export: create Test - publish in the test catalog - export to Excel; the second Test in a similar manner; then combine both tests in Excel and add them to Catalog via Test Import.

Stages of test creation

Step 1: Topic Definition (What are we checking?) At the initial stage, the moderator sets the basic context for the AI:

• Test namefor example, "Final Test on occupational safety".
• Subject / DescriptionA brief explanation of what this Test is about and who its intended audience is.

Step 2: Knowledge Source The moderator selects Material, which Nika.AI will analyze to formulate questions. There are three available methods for transmitting information:

• TextDirect insertion of regulation, article, or instruction text into the work field.
• FileLoading a document in formats PDF, DOCX, or TXT (up to 10 MB in size).
• LinkSpecifying the URL of a public page whose content the AI should process.

If a source is not added, open internet data is used. If added, the added sources are used as a priority.

Step 3: Test Parameters Setting up technical specifications and difficulty level for the upcoming test:

• VolumeSetting the number of questions (from 1 to 20) and answer options for each of them.
• RequirementsDefinition of the passing score (in percent).
• DifficultyChoice difficulty level (e.g., "Low") from the dropdown list.

Step 4: Question Types The moderator marks the assignment formats that the AI should use during generation.

• Choice (one or more correct answers).
• Sequence.
• Matching.
• Open question.
• Substitution (filling in the blanks in the text).

Working with Results (Test Editor)

After generation is complete, the moderator proceeds to Test EditorWhere can the final edit be made?

• EditingYou can modify the text of any question, the task type, or the answer options, as well as manually mark the correct answers.
• Manual additionAt the bottom of the list of questions, a panel is provided for independently adding a new question of any type.
• Publicationusing the toggle "Publish Test" and buttons "Add to Catalog" Test is saved and becomes available in the system.

Auxiliary tools

Throughout the entire process, the moderator is assisted by:

• Context Nika.AISidebar with a welcome message and generation status confirmation (e.g., "Test successfully generated!").
• AI AssistantAn interactive chat in the lower right corner of the screen, through which you can give the neural network additional commands (for example, "Rewrite question 2 more simply").

Recommendation for writing a test creation query

If a general wording is used:

"Make Test on computer work"

AI is forced to guess the direction:

• Windows?

• Linux?

• BIOS?

• Safety?

• office software?

• networks?

This may lead to unwanted displacement.

Therefore, it is recommended to formulate the query as detailed as possible:

"Create a Test on PowerShell for beginners with emphasis on file operations and loops."

Section "Quick Test Creation" The moderator's office is designed for the most rapid assembly of test tasks, when only basic parameters need to be set: Title and List of Questions.

Main interface elements

1. Test name

2. List of questions The central area of the screen is reserved for forming the question database. In the right part of this block's header, the following is displayed: total question counter in the test (e.g., "Total questions: 1").

Each Block question includes the following elements:

Process Management

This tool minimizes the number of settings, allowing a moderator to assemble a functional Test on a single page without navigating through complex menus.

Section "Advanced Test Creation" The moderator's office is designed for detailed manual configuration of all aspects of testing: from visual design to complex question delivery logic and integration with the employee development system. The process is divided into four steps: "General," "Parameters," "Blocks," and "Questions."

Step 1. "GENERAL"

1. Here the basic test identifiers are set:

2. In test settings mandatory there are three fields (in addition to the need for the questions themselves):

• Test Name (do not use special characters in names, such as the snowboarder emoji).
• Time on Test.
• Pass-through Score.

3. Field "Competence" and function "Generate IDP when failing to achieve the passing score".

Add competencies to the test with and without activating the "Generate IDP if passing score is not achieved" element.

Without activation. In this case, the competencies will serve as information only and will not provide any additional functionality.

With activation. Activation will only be possible if developmental activities have been assigned to the competency in the Settings - Competency Management section. If developmental activities are assigned and the user has not achieved the passing Score, the system will automatically generate a IDP, which will already include the developmental activities.

Step 2. "PARAMETERS"

1. At this stage, the technical conditions for passing and the rules for displaying results are configured:

2. Enable comments. When activated, all users will be able to write comments on the test card.

3. Issue Certificate. Upon activation, it is necessary to select Certificate. Certificate is created in the Moderator - Application Settings - Certificates section. Upon successful completion of the test, the system will generate Certificate, which will be available to the test taker in the My Certificates section.

4. Feedback Form. При прохождении теста система откроет анкету тестируемому для заполнения.

7. Points. How many points to award for passing the test. This is not a passing Score, but part of the gamification system. 

8. Passing score. Calculated as a percentage, taking into account the weights of the questions if they are provided. 

9. Test Results. Four options are available for selection: 

• Do not show answers. Test results will be available only to the application moderators.
• display questions with scoring. The employee taking the test will see Correct or Incorrect given Answer. At the same time, they will not see the correct results (detailed breakdown). 
• display questions, answers, score. The employee taking the test will see Correct or Incorrect given Answer. They will also see which answers contain errors and which answers are correct.
• display Incorrect Answer immediately. The employee, when taking the test, will immediately see whether they answered correctly or incorrectly (the result will be highlighted). However, they will not see the correct answers.

By Default works with the first option "do not show answers". 

In the second and third options, the employee can view the test results in their personal account under the My Tests section by clicking on the corresponding Test. The "Test Results" element will be available in the test. 

Step 3. "BLOCKS"

1. Using the "Blocks" functionality, you can create thematic blocks and then activate or deactivate them depending on testing tasks.

For example, a database of 100 questions is created, consisting of 10 thematic blocks with 10 questions each. Subsequently, some blocks are activated while others are deactivated. The application will present the test-taker with questions only from the active blocks. 

2. This functionality is convenient in situations where it is necessary to create a large question database and then, depending on the tasks, conduct testing not on the entire list of topics, but on specific topics.

3. The general workflow for working with blocks is as follows:

1. Thematic blocks are activated. A tab for creating thematic blocks appears.
2. Thematic blocks are created in the "Blocks" tab. Only the name of the new block needs to be specified. 
3. When creating questions, each question is linked to a specific thematic block.
4. Next, when assigning the test, the required blocks are activated, and the unnecessary ones are deactivated.
5. The system will present the test taker with questions only from active blocks.

Step 4. "QUESTIONS"

Final stage of content population:

The weight of the matter. 

By Default All questions have the same weight equal to one. The weights are then recalculated based on the number of questions entered. That is, if there is one question in the test, its weight will be 1 or 100%. If there are two questions in the test, the weight of each will be: 0.5 or 1 / 2 * 100 = 50%. If there are 8 questions in the test, the weight of each will be: 

• The sum of weights of all questions = 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 8
• The weight of one question will be: 1 / 8 * 100 = 12.5%

Weight of specific question / Total sum of weights * 100

The application allows you to assign an arbitrary weight to any question. To do this, enter an integer in the special field, and the system will convert the weights of all questions into percentages using the formula above.

Example. Test of 8 questions. Let's assign a weight of 7 to the last question, 3 to the first question, and leave the rest blank. Let's calculate the question weights.

The sum of weights of all questions = 3 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 7 = 16

The weight of the first question will be:

3 / 16 * 100 = 18.75%

The weight of the last question will be:

7 / 16 * 100 = 43.75%

The weight of each of the remaining questions will be:

1 / 16 * 100 = 6.25%

Checking (should equal 100%): 18.75 + 6.25 + 6.25 + 6.25 + 6.25 + 6.25 + 6.25 + 43.75 = 100%

The pass score Score is calculated taking into account the weighting coefficients of all questions.

In the example above, if we set the passing threshold Score to 42%, let's consider different scenarios:

• The first seven questions are correct, the last one is incorrect, so the score will be 56.25%, Test Passed. 
• Last one correct, all others incorrect, scored 43.75%, Test Passed.

Note that percentages are rounded on the screen, but not in calculations and formulas.

ManagementAt any time, the moderator can save the work as "Draft" or immediately "Publish" Test for the intended audience. Navigation is performed using the "Next", "Back", and "Save Test" buttons at the bottom of the screen.

Section "Import test" The moderator's office is designed for mass and automated uploading of test questions from external files, which significantly speeds up the process of creating assessment materials.

Main functional capabilities and interface:

This tool enables efficient migration of large volumes of test tasks from external systems or archives without the need for manual entry of each question.

1. Tests in the application can:

• Create, edit - only by the application moderator.
• Copy, delete, import, export - application moderator only.
• Pass through - any employee.

2. Creating and Editing a Test. For creation test click on the plus sign add in the test catalog and sequentially fill in the tabs:

• Test setup;
• Test questions;
• Blocks (when activated).

For editing test press on Edit element in test card.

3. Copying, Deleting, Importing, Exporting a Test. 

For copying test click on the element copy in test cardTest will be copied and appear in the directory with the name Copy. Test will be in the Draft status.

For deletion test click on the element Delete in test cardTest will be permanently deleted.

Import testThe Test can be imported in the test directory by clicking on the Import element. The Test can be imported in two formats: UDATA and Excel. The format is selected in the application settings: Settings - Application Settings - Other - Export Format.

Import in format UDATAThis format is used for backing up tests or migrating them from one portal to another. 

Import in format ExcelConvenient to use when creating large question databases. Download the test template for import "Download sample xlsx file for import". Prepare your question database in it and import.

Export testTo export, click on the element export Hello! How can I assist you today? test cardTest will be exported in the format specified in the settings (UDATA or Excel).

Tests have the following statuses:

• Status publications: published; draft (unsaved, not published). 
• Passing statuses: Not Started; In Progress (when expecting review of open questions); Passed; Not Passed.
• Statuses by purpose: Self-Enrollment - the employee clicked on Take the test, appointed - appointed as the application moderator.

Polls are designed to conduct surveys on various topics. Unlike tests, polls do not have right or wrong answers.

Methods of creating a survey

• Create from scratchfully manual configuration of an empty form.
• ImportAutomatic survey draft creation from uploaded file (supported formats include Word, PDF, Excel и PowerPointAttention! Nika.AI tokens are in use.
• Create with Nika.AIAn intelligent assistant can generate questions based on a textual description of a task (e.g., "Survey on food quality") or based on ready-made topics: Engagement, Adaptation, Assessment of learning, Team climate.

Section "HR Templates" (in the "Form Creation" menu) provides the moderator with access to a library of pre-configured surveys with ready-made structure and analytics. These templates cover key aspects of personnel management and allow launching a professional study in just a few clicks.

Main features of working with templates

• SearchOn the right side of the section, there is a "Search templates..." bar for quickly finding the required form using keywords.
• PreviewWhen selecting any template, the "Template Preview" window opens, where the moderator can examine the survey structure, the order of sections, and the types of questions (for example, "Department" with a short text input field).
• EditingThe "Edit" button in the preview window allows you to adapt the template to your company's specifics by modifying questions or settings.
• PublicationThe "Publish in Catalog" button allows you to instantly launch Survey if no edits are required.
