On this page we will talk about issues, which YouTestMe application can help you with.

Courses and Classes

With YTM you can categorize students into courses and classes. It makes sharing tests, selecting questions for tests and keeping statistics well organized and versatile.

Example:

Sharing a Molecular biology test within class 3B, only to students who take the Science course.

Making unique tests of the same difficulty

By selecting questions based on the level of difficulty, question pool, last occurrence, etc., professors can create unique tests of the same type, for each student.

Examples:

Prevents copying answers while performing exams, but keeps the same level of difficulty for each student. 

Helps with creating multiple test groups. 

Slow manual evaluating process

When you are making the test, after selecting questions from the pools or adding new ones ad hoc, YTM enables:

- Setting an amount of added points for each correct answer, or amount of deducted points in case the given answer is incorrect;

- Configure a grading system in each test individually, which allows automatic real-time grading after test submission.

Example:

Setting a point range for each grade, measured in percentage of either correct answers or number of points, so students can see their grade immediately after submitting the test.

Scheduling the tests

You can also define the exact date and hour when will the test be available for a certain user group, how long will it be available for taking, and once the test is running, how much time does the student have to submit his answers .

Example:

Setting availability of test for distance learning students, so they can choose when to take the test according to their schedule.

Printing hard copies of the created tests

YTM supports exporting to .pdf format for printing the generated tests.

Examples:

Generating tests by using the YTM tools, but providing hard copy tests for the students;

Using hard copies for archiving.

Following student performance statistics

After each test, professor receives certain statistics such as: highest, average and lowest grades awarded in that particular test; list of all grades; longest, average and shortest time of submission, etc.

Example:

Estimating level of difficulty for the given test or checking if the predefined time for taking the test was corresponding.

Creating different question type tests

It is possible to create several types of questions: essay, fill in the gap, single choice, multiple choice, matching and ordering. You can later store them in selected question pools, so they are organized and ready for generating tests. Question editor also supports math functions, images, symbols, etc.

Example:

For making versatile types of tests: math, art tests with imported images, pop quizzes or mixed types of questions within a test.

Test preparation

When you are making a test, questions are chosen either manually or by specifying criteria for selection, some of them being: number of questions, course, subject, difficulty, last occurrence, cutoff date, etc. You can design a test and save it as a particular test template, while setting points and grading system.

Example:

When trying to avoid of questions that were on recent tests.

Self preparation

YTM distinguishes different access levels for question pools as well as test generating tools. Pools can either be set as public, or they can be set as available exclusively to the selected user(s), who are able to contribute to those pools or generate tests using them.

Example:

Students can create practice tests and check their knowledge by generating them from authorized question pools.
