New passive mode for randomized drawing of questions in tests and courses with learning objectives

1 Requirements

The test needs a new "passive" mode for automatical/automized drawing of questions in tests - also in tests of courses with learning objectives in its iteration- which has an impact on drawing questions in the following way: Questions should be drawn and selected from a set filtered by a taxonomy in a randomized and weighted manner.

4 Discussion

JF 15 Apr 2013: The decision on taxonomies in tests has been discussed on Taxonomies for Test Questions. The description of the additional suggested feature suggested on this page is too vague.
 
Who defines the filters and weights? When and how are the filters and weights specified? How may the screens that define the filters and weights look like? What values can be used, et cetera?
 
There seem to be two projects that have similar needs here, the Optes and the Unirep Online project. We hope that the requirements of both projects can be met by the same (at least in major parts) implementation. See Continuous Testing Mode.
