There needs to be a record of the questions answered, regardless of whether they are right or wrong. This is essential if we are to be able to fine-tune the questions that we have created. All of these conditions have been met with software that we have been evaluating. QuestionMark provides an environment where professors can create and categorise questions along with providing feedback for potential outcomes within the question bank. Once the questions have been created, select material from the question bank to create exam sessions.
Students then log in, and after identifying themselves with their password, take the test.
Our initial work has been with self-testing rather than generating marks but the results are encouraging. Let us know at Teaching Technologies. Using Crossword Puzzles as an aid to studying Sociological Concepts. The Crossword Puzzle as a Teaching Tool.
