Importing assessments to a home PC

You can import assessments to a home PC from data you have previously exported your student assessments to.

Note:
This step is not required if you are using a notebook.


If you import another set of classes before exporting the current set, the current set is overwritten. This is because they use the same database tables from the Synergetic database. This file is simply overwritten with the newly imported file. Any work done locally is overwritten if you proceed.

Important Note: Be very careful - there is no way of restoring the overwritten results, unless you make a backup of the local Synergetic database (Synergetic.mdb) before importing.

To import assessments to a home PC:

  1. Connect your storage device to the local PC.
    Tip: If you are using a flash drive to transfer the data, insert the flash drive into the USB port of the home PC.

  2. Launch the Standalone version of Synergetic by double clicking the desktop icon.
  3. Select Module > Assessments > Import Assessments from Your Diskette.

    Tip:
    You can also access the Import Assessments from Main System window by clicking .

    The Assessments Import from Main System window is displayed.


    Note:
    The Path to Copy from field defaults to the drive letter that the storage device has been assigned by your PC.

  4. If the required Synergy.mdb file is not shown, either:
    • type the directory path in the Path to Copy from field
    • click to browse for the file.
  5. Click .
    The following dialog window is displayed.
