Abstract

Using technology to create online examination is important, more than that, exploring the recent research in the area of standardization of the learning and the assessment content is of paramount. However, there is still a lack of reusable, interoperable and exchangeable learning resources that afford much motivation to instructors. Assessing acquired knowledge is the primary task of any Learning Management Systems (LMS). Consequent-ly, sharing evaluation contents is a major challenge for software engineering. In this paper, we present the “CleverTesting” assessment authoring tool, focusing on its architecture and its conformance to the Question and Test Interoperability (QTI) specification proposed by IMS Global Learning Consortium. We adopt the QTI specification to create reusable, interoperable and sharable assessment content. Our system has three important components: The first component is “CleverTesting” a quiz authoring tool that allows building sharable question items. The second represents a question bank. The latest component is a player for interpreting and parsing QTI XML documents.

Highlights

  • Nowadays, the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in education have fundamentally changed the way people learn and teach

  • Our research looks at the computerized adaptive testing system (CAT) design and development process

  • We addressed the first phase of our research on designing and developing an authoring system to help teachers build reusable evaluation objects according to the QTIv2.2 specification

Summary

Introduction

The use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in education have fundamentally changed the way people learn and teach. Electroniclearning (E-learning) or web-based instruction refers broadly to the use of ICT to deliver learning content electronically and to promote teaching strategies. ELearning has become a crucial segment of instruction environments [1]. As a significant research field, it has a great deal of interest and has grown considerably. One of the more powerful phases of the e-learning process is online assessment (eAssessment). Assessment is the process of measuring the skills, abilities, the learning progress or educational needs of the learners’ acquired knowledge during their learniJET ‒ Vol 16, No 01, 2021
