Activity Wizard
The Activity Wizard is an assessment tool that allows you to create highly specific networking scenarios for other users. This tool is particularly useful for instructors creating activities for students to complete. When students start an activity, they are presented with an initial network and a set of instructions. Students follow the instructions to complete the activity, then they can check their finished network with the instructor's answer (or solution) network. Instructors have full control over all aspects of the activity. The typical sequence for creating an activity is as follows:
You can access the Activity Wizard from the File menu. When you do so, you have the option to use the existing workspace as the answer network.
You are first greeted with a Welcome screen that explains the basic steps to create an activity (similar to this page). You can then click on any of the tabs in the Activity Menu (on the left) to edit the various aspects of the activity.
After going through the various panels to create the activity, select Save from the Activity Menu to save the activity (in the .pka file format).
Choose Exit from the Activity Menu to exit the Activity Wizard. Note that the workspace will be cleared after you exit, so remember to save your files.
