QuizComposer is enabled at the course intranet of my university. How actively they have been developing it recently I do not know.

I found this: http://quizcomposer.sourceforge.net/

Is that an active project? I couldn't seem to find any active examples, but maybe I'm not looking for it correctly?

Hello Finn,
That's interesting. I can see special notation on the wiki for the
questions. Is that how the QuizComposer works or is there a separate
interface?

No, the QuizComposer of Technical University of Denmark has its own special interface. It is not related to Wikiversity.

My idea is to build a nice forms type editor, similar to "SurveyMonkey",
"GoogleForms" and that style, where you get a WYSIWYG question editor.
It has to be super-easy to use.

Maybe OpenTest could have an *export* option to the Wikiversity notation.

        I'd like to propose *OpenTest* as an OKFN project. The idea is
        to build

        a collaborative assessment database where educators and learners can
        upload and share their questions and tests. All contents will be
        under
        CC license, OpenDatabase or equivalent.

        There is a lot of OpenEducation content on the web, not so much
        assessment. I believe this is a need that could be helpful for many
        schools, and educational institutions around the world.

        More info on the project here: www.opentest.cc<http://www.opentest.cc>
        <http://www.opentest.cc> <http://www.opentest.cc>



        I'd be more than happy to discuss the idea with you! =)


    I did not see any actual tests on the OpenTest website. I see it is
    going live in Q2-2013.

    I have been using our university "QuizComposer" and the quiz
    facility in Wikiversity. I build this one:
    http://en.wikiversity.org/__wiki/Python_quiz

    <http://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/Python_quiz>

    The MediaWiki quiz extension in Wikiversity has multiple choice,
    true/false, multiple response, and text area (like your system
    http://www.opentest.cc/types-__of-questions/
    <http://www.opentest.cc/types-of-questions/>). It has facility for

    computer code, images and math. I is visually appealing, reasonable
    easy to edit and has scoring. The bad news is that it does not store
    the student responses nor scoring.
