Patent ID: 8385812

Claim:
A computer-based system for assessment driven learning, the system comprising a processor and machine-executable instructions, the system comprising: a generator configured to present questions received from a processor to a question presentation device utilizing a question module and a question database having a plurality of questions, wherein the plurality of questions are associated with a stacking weight, wherein the plurality of questions are ordered according to the stacking weight of each question, and wherein each question presented includes at least one answer option and at least one associated correct response; a question property evaluator configured to utilize the question module and question database to determine a likelihood of randomly selecting the at least one associated correct response for each question presented by calculating: an inverse of a product of the number of answer options the user is instructed to select and a number of possible combinations of selection and non-selection of the answer options when the number of answer options the user is instructed to select is less than the number of answer options, or an inverse of two raised to a power of the number of answer options when the number of answer options the user is instructed to select is greater than or equal to the number of answer options, and a question response receiver configured to receive, from a device associated with the user, at least one response to each question presented utilizing a communications module; and a question response evaluator configured to, utilizing an evaluation module and a user response history database for each question presented: determine, when the at least one response is the at least one associated correct response, a likelihood that the at least one response is a false positive using the question property evaluator, a response history of the user, and a response history of one or more other users, wherein the question response evaluator is further configured to increase the likelihood that the at least one response is a false positive upon an increase in the likelihood of randomly selecting the at least one correct response adjust the stacking weight of each question presented within the question database depending at least upon the likelihood that the at least one response to the question is a false positive.
