# Assessments Settings

Users with the **Create Local Assessment Tests** right can access certain **Assessments Settings**. These settings allow you to configure features for assessments, manage student inventories, and set up teacher teams. This article describes each setting by category. Keep in mind that the settings you see on your screen are determined by the user rights set by your system administrator.

## Accessing Assessments Settings

Log in to **Aware** and click the **Assessments Settings** gear ( settings ) to access each setting. Then, choose a setting option from the drop-down menu.

## **Assessment Settings**

### **Configure LockDown Browser**

District-level data administrators can [allow users access to applications for use alongside LockDown Browser](/v1/docs/lockdown-browser-allowlist-options). Any allowed applications run in the background as students harness LockDown Browser to take their assessments.

Administrators can also find the latest LockDown Browser installer links for Windows and macOS.

### **Configure Test Types**

Users with the **Data Administrator** role can [configure options for test types](/v1/docs/creating-and-configuring-test-types) such as District Benchmarks, School- and District-Level Rubrics, Teacher Test Types, Custom Import Test Types, and much more.

### **Create New Test Type**

Users with the **Data Administrator** role can also [add a new test type](/v1/docs/creating-and-configuring-test-types). Once they have created the test type, they can configure the settings as with other test types.

### **Mass Edit Assessments**

Users with the right to **create district-level or school-level assessments** can [mass edit assessments](/v1/docs/mass-editing-assessments), which includes activating tests, starting or stopping active online tests, modifying characteristics like grade and subject, and much more.

## **Student Inventory Settings**

### **Configure Student Inventory Types**

Users with the **Create Student Inventory Tests** right can select **Configure Student Inventory Types** to view a list of all current Student Inventory Types. Each inventory type displays the number of student inventory assessments connected to it.

### **Create New Student Inventory Type**

Users with the **Create Student Inventory** Tests right can also [create a new student inventory type](/v1/docs/creating-a-new-student-inventory-type). Follow the wizard’s directions to create the new student inventory type, and then establish its settings and score levels.

### **Edit My Teams**

Teachers and administrators can [manage teacher teams](/v1/docs/creating-and-managing-a-teacher-team-in-aware-teachers) by selecting **Edit My Teams**. However, Eduphoria advises teachers to manage their own teams as much as possible. Administrators should help manage only when necessary.
