Abstract

This paper introduces a novel open source platform independent Quiz Engine Developer (QED). This is a standards compliant (IMS QTI) system which permits the user to develop questions at the lowest level of granularity (termed Quiz Objects). Quizzes are a natural symbiotic partner to learning and therefore are equally as important to complete the learning experience. These Quiz Objects are structured similarly to Learning Objects (IEEE LOM) and similarly this object-orientated approach supports interoperability and reusability by the development of quiz banks that are searchable and shareable between independent developers. The quiz engine that has been designed is web-based, cross platform (mobile & desktop) and feature rich and allows several modes of interaction with the user (e.g. template driven, power user). An important aspect of the system is its ability to search individual quiz objects, which allows greater reuse of questions.
