The user clicks a single line of the list box to select an answer. A sample multiple choice testing environment with the multiple choice answers displayed as graphics . The user clicks a single radio button beside a graphic to select it as the answer. A sample keyboard input testing environment. A single test is not restricted to any one of the above formats.
Any combination is possible.
The problems can be randomized as well as the multiple choice answers. Two users doing the test at the same time will appear to have slightly different tests. Mix this option with the randomization option in the previous example to discourage cheating. Students sitting side by side in a computer lab environment will more than likely not be working on the same problem at the same time. Doing so automatically marks the test and produces an elaborate summary of results for the user to see.
