1.5.3 Test
Generator from www.testshop.com
Test Generator seems to be a good start to solving the problem of generating,
taking, and grading tests however it is not the final answer we are looking
for. Some of it's good qualities is that the basics are covered. The downsides
mostly consist of a lack of features which enable the student an easier test taking
experience, such as skipping questions and returning to them. The most glaring
missing feature for the generation of test is specifying a desired time length. The website
was unclear as to how easy or quick test generation would be, however from looking at the
screenshots they provide it appears there is no wizard that will generate a whole test
for you, but rather just a question data bank and you chose questions from it manually one
at a time, very low automation. As for the student taking the test they did not show anything
so i can only assume an experience similar to blackboard and not very user friendly.
