Create a printed test
Is it possible to create a printable test (done on paper with a pen) from a test bank in Storyline or Quizmaker?
Hi Emily
I'm not quite sure what you want to do. My first instinct (in Storyline) would be to:
- Create a Question Bank
- Publish to Word and edit out the bits I don't need
- Save as a PDF
- Edit the PDF to add an answer column to the quiz questions
- Convert the pdf to a form which the learner can fill in
You can then make the pdf file downloadable from the course in some way... (e.g. in the Resources section). Below is a pdf I created in about 5 minutes from a Question Bank - you can then just add fields (radio buttons) to the pdf form.
BUT that wouldn't select questions at random..... Is that what you want?
Hope that helps, John
Hi John, Thanks. I saw the Word export options, and as you mentioned, it does both the slide image and the text files for it, so it'd be quite a bit of formatting to get it to a usable format. Basically I have some students without access to technology and I'd like to be able to have versions of the materials that they can take in my LMS (in the SCORM files) and be able to generate on-demand printed versions I can hand to learners for them to answer and give back to me to grade. Looking for that equitably randomized generator that can serve both audiences.
Hi Emily
I think you are into the realms of JavaScript. It is certainly possible to create a pdf form template with, say, 6 blank multiple choice questions, then select from an array of questions (at random) and fill in a randomly generated pdf quiz - but it would be very tricky as each question might have a different format e.g true/false, 3 options, 4 options etc.
I don't think that's much help - maybe someone else has some suggestions?
