Test Building
A flexible way to author whole tests or compile them from multiple questions
Improve your high-stakes test building process
Compiling tests can be stressful for even the most well organised teams. We know that you will want to get this step just right and pick the best questions for every assessment. GradeMaker Pro is designed to support every way of test building, helping your team to build reliable and valid assessments more efficiently.
Your test construction process could be made more efficient if…
- You need to build a lot of different tests but getting them all through the development process takes up a huge amount of your time.
- Your authoring process leaves you with a range of testing assets in different formats which adds extra workload when you need to compile them into a consistent layout.
- You need to uphold the highest levels of security as your tests are being constructed.
GradeMaker Pro gives you...
- Rich criteria to select the right items for your test and exclude the items you don’t want, for example, questions that candidates may have already seen in previous tests.
- Automatic test generation tools that will select random items for your test based on your search criteria.
- Options for laying out your test in exactly the way you want, with customised sections and layout options.
- The ability to preview the output of your test during construction so you can see how it will appear to candidates on screen on in print.
- The ability to add pre-tested anchor items to your test.
- Tools for whole paper authoring so you can commission, monitor, review and publish an exam as a single project.
There is a smarter way to produce your assessments. GradeMaker Pro gives professionals the most advanced tools for test building.
As a test developer using GradeMaker, you will:
- Efficiently construct tests from scratch or compile a test from item-banked questions.
- Be confident that your authors are following clear directions and writing in a consistent format.
- Easily construct tests from your item bank, thanks to the software’s rich metadata options and powerful search functionality.
