FAQS

Triton Web

Can a user have multiple roles within Triton DCS?
No. Once an email address is associated to a role, it cannot be associated to another role. However, Site Managers and Organization Managers may be given Proctor permissions.
Can more than one Proctor share a Participant List?
No. Multiple Proctors cannot be assigned to a single Participant List.
What is the maximum number of participants allowed in a participant list?
A single Participant List can contain up to 1,000 Participants.
What is the largest Blueprint a user can create?
The largest Blueprint can include up to: 10 Answer Documents with 10 versions a piece, with 250 questions in each version.
34
I deleted my associated files. Now I need them.
Triton DCS does not recover deleted files. Be sure to download the files to your computer prior to deletion (should you need them in the future).
Why do I receive the following message when uploading my template files? “The file you chose is invalid.”
Triton Web only allows you to upload CSV files. Verify that the file you are trying to upload has an extension of CSV. For example Programs.csv.
I am administering exams across time zones and my Schedule is available a day earlier than expected.
The Schedule activation date, begin date, makeup date and end date are based on the time zone selected when the Schedule was created. The Schedule becomes active, begins, and ends at midnight on the selected days. For instance, a Schedule was created by a user on the east coast and a Proctor is going to be administering the Schedule on the west coast. The Schedule becomes active, begins and ends on midnight of the selected days on the east coast. However, on the west coast the Schedule becomes active, begins and ends at 9 p.m. the day before the specified dates when the Schedule was created.

Triton Proctor Application

Is ResponseWare compatible with Triton DCS?
Triton DCS is only compatible with the ResponseCard NXT.
tritondatacollectionsystem.com/triton-support
Triton Data Collection System

Hardware

Which ResponseCards are compatible with Triton DCS?
Triton DCS only works with ResponseCard NXT with firmware version 2.0 or higher.
I cannot login. What is wrong?
The firmware on the ResponseCard NXT must be 2.0 or higher. To find the firmware, press the softkey below the wrench > press the right arrow until you see Device Info > press Enter > press the right arrow.
The channel number is blank on the Triton Proctor Application login screen.
Triton DCS only works with the Proctor Receiver. If the Proctor Receiver is plugged in and the channel number is blank, unplug the receiver and plug it into a different USB port.
ResponseCard NXT displays the message: “Incorrect Test: Restarting.”
This occurs when a Participant starts the login process for Answer Document A but never completely enters the exam. The Proctor then starts Answer Document B, however the Participant’s ResponseCard is still in the log in process for Answer Document A. The Participant will be taken to the Welcome screen on the ResponseCard and must login again to continue the exam.

Answer Document

An Answer Document defines the type of exam (Test or Evaluation), the number of questions and answer options.

Associated File

An associated file must be a PDF document that will be accessible to those users who have access to the Blueprint. This may include administration procedures, question booklets, definition or equation reference pages, etc.

Begin Date

The begin date is the day the Schedule becomes available for the Proctor to administer.

Blueprint

A Blueprint is comprised of one set of Administration Rules with at least one or more (up to 10) Answer Documents. The Blueprint determines how tests are administered, if and when a Participant can be added, acceptable attendance states and if makeups are available.

Bundle

37
If more than one Answer Document is associated with the Blueprint, a set of Bundle Administration Rules determines how multiple Answer Documents are administered. The rules that makeup a Blueprint bundle are: Enforce Bundle,
Enforce Order, Self-Pacedand Single Login.

Discrimination Index

The discrimination index for a particular question is based on the point biserial correlation coefficient. Item discrimination is a measure describing how well a question differentiates between students that did well on the overall test and those that did not.

End Date

The end date is the last day the exam can be administered. After this date, the Schedule is removed from the Triton Proctor Application, unless it is in the Recovery state.

Enforce (Attendance)

An Administration Rule which determines if an exam may be started if all the Participants are not logged into the exam.
Yes, the exam can only be started when all the Participants are logged in or marked as ‘Not Present.’

Triton Data Collection System

Enforce Order

Enforce Order determines the order in which the Answer Documents are delivered during the examination.
Yes, the order in which the Answer Document appears will be the order the exams must be in for administration.
No, the Proctor may change the order of the Answer Documents. Participants that have not begun the log in process
will automatically be marked as ‘Not Present.’

Evaluation

An Answer Document that does not allow for correct answers or points to be defined. (e.g. a survey or questionnaire)

Exam

Exam is the general term used when referring to an Answer Document and can be either a test or an evaluation.

Exam Room

The Exam Room is the window in the Triton Proctor Application through which an exam is administered.
38

Late Entry

An Administration Rule that determines whether or not a Participant may log into an exam after the exam has started.
Yes, Participants may log in AFTER the exam has started.
No, Participants may not log in once the exam has started.

Makeups

An Administration Rule that determines whether a Participant that was not present at the time of the exam can makeup the exam at a later time.
Yes, Participants not present at the time of the exam CAN makeup the exam at a later time.
No, Participants not present at the time of the exam CANNOT makeup the exam at a later time.

Makeups Created In

A Schedule setting that determines whether a makeup exam is administered through the Triton Proctor Application or in Triton Web.
Desktop Application - The Proctor administers makeup exams through the Triton Proctor Application.
Web - The makeup exams are Scheduled through Triton Web and downloaded as a new Participant List in the
Schedule.

Makeup Date

The makeup date is used as a reference for a time period when Makeups should begin.

Triton Data Collection System

Organization Manager

An Organization Manager is a user that will have all administration rights to the Organization. They will have edit and read access to the Organization, Staff, Sites and all other components. This login type is responsible for imports and can create Blueprints that are shared across the Organization.

Participants

Individuals taking an exam are referred to as Participants.

Participant List

A Participant List is analogous to a class of students and their Proctor.

Proctor

A Proctor is a user that will be administering a scheduled Blueprint. A Proctor will also be able to log into Triton Web and create exams for their own use.

Proctor Receiver

39
A receiver specifically designed for use with the Triton Data Collection System, the Proctor Receiver is a yellow receiver with the part number RRRF-03-P.

Program

A Program can also be referred to as a course, which includes grouping terminology that will be used when associating Staff and Participants for exams.

Reliability Coefficient (KR20)

KR20 relates to the consistency of test items from one testing date to the next, or reliability. The same students taking the same test at two different times would have similar scores on a highly reliable test. A reliable test would typically have a KR20 of .70 or higher.

Rejoin

An Administration Rule that determines whether a Participant must finish an exam in the original session.
Yes, if an exam is started, and is NOT finished in the original session, a Participant can rejoin the session at a later
time to finish. On rejoin, all previously recorded responses will be downloaded to the ResponseCard at login.
No, if an exam is started it must be finished in that session.

Schedule

A Schedule is comprised of a Blueprint, at least one Participant List and the date range when the exams can be administered. Schedules are administered through the Triton Proctor Application.
tritondatacollectionsystem.com/triton-support
Triton Data Collection System

Self-Paced

Self-Paced is a Bundle Rule that determines whether or not a Participant must wait for all Participants to finish an Answer Document before moving on the next exam.
Yes, allows the Participants to finish the first Answer Document and move onto the second without waiting for all
Participants to finish.
No, Participants must wait for the Proctor to start each Answer Document.

Session

A session contains the Schedule information and Participant responses.

Single Login

Single Login is a Bundle Rule and determines whether or not Participants must enter their Participant ID for each Answer Document in the exam.
Yes, Participants are required to enter their Participant ID for the first Answer Document. Name, Participant ID and
exam verification will be necessary for additional Answer Documents.
No, Participants must enter their Participant ID log in for each Answer Document.
40

Site

A Site is a management structure analogous to a school building, department, client or other such organizational structure.

Site Manager

A Site Manager is a user that manages the Site through the creation, editing and scheduling of Blueprints, and any other functions permitted by the Organization Manager.

Staff

The users within Triton Data Collection System are referred to as Staff. These users can have the role of Organization Managers, Site Managers or Proctors.

Test

An Answer Document that allows for correct answers to be defined.
tritondatacollectionsystem.com/triton-support
Triton Data Collection System

REPORT CALCULATIONS

Only active Participants are used in these calculations. Active Participants are those that logged in and did a final send of the exam.
* Scores are treated as one point per correct response and zero points per incorrect response. Non-responders are treated as incorrect.
NOTE
Essay questions are not included in report calculations because they are not graded by Triton DCS.

Average Points Received

The average points received value is calculated by taking the sum of points for all respondents to an Answer Document version divided by the number respondents.
41

Average Score

The average score value is calculated by taking the sum of scores for all Participants to an Answer Document version divided by the number of respondents.

Reliability Coefficient (KR20)

The Kuder-Richardson Formula 20 (KR20) represents the reliability of a given test.
KR20 relates to the consistency of test items from one testing date to the next, or reliability. The same students taking the same test at two different times would have similar scores on a highly reliable test. A reliable test should have a KR20 of .70 or higher.
pKR20 = ( K/(K-1)) * (1-( ( ѷ (p*q))/Ȫ²) )
1
K = the # of items on the test
p = proportion of participants who answered correctly (# correct responses/total responses for this item)
q = (1 - p) note that q is represented this way to eliminate rounding errors
Ȫ = standard deviation of scores for the entire test

42

Discrimination Index

The discrimination index for a particular question is based on the point biserial correlation coefficient, which measures the correlation between the correct answer on a question and the total test scores of the active participants.
To calculate this statistic, you must first determine the following:
1
Total number of Participants that answered the question correctly
Total number of Participants that answered the question incorrectly
A Participant that has not responded to a question is considered to have answered incorrectly.
Mean total score of the group of Participants that have answered the question correctly*
Mean total score of the group of Participants that answered the question incorrectly*
Mean total score of all active Participants*
Standard Deviation
standard deviation(Ȫ) = Ҁ ( ѷ ((x - ȣ)²) / n)
x = a Participant’s score
ȣ = mean total score
n = total number of Participants
The discrimination index can then be computed with the following formula:
discrimination index = ((Mp-Mq) / Ȫ) * Ҁ ((Np*Nq)/((Np+Nq)* (Np+Nq-1))
Mp = mean total score of the group of Participants that answered question the correctly*
Mq = mean total score of the group of Participants that answered the question incorrectly*
Np = total number of Participants that answered the question correctly
Nq = total number of Participants that answered the question incorrectly
Ȫ = standard deviation of scores for the entire set
