Solutions

Ever since the creation of educational institutions, people had problems with testing knowledge. YouTestMe application can help you with many issues, by saving time and making certain procedures easy to access and manage. This text will show you some perks for both the lecturers and the students.

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 those students who participate in 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 test availability 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 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.

YouTestMe Corporate

YouTestMe Corporate Version is a web-based application used for testing, certification and learning. It can be used in schools, colleges, universities, companies and any other institutions that require various types of testing, certification and training.

Main features of the applications are:

• Question pools that are containers capable of keeping unlimited number of questions;

• Quiz generator – a sophisticated module for generating quizzes based on various criteria.

• Data exchange mechanisms - questions, quizzes, users and many other data can be exported from one system and imported to another;

• Question pools and quizzes can be created offline and then uploaded into the system;

• Extensive user/role management system;

• Capability to generate paper based tests in PDF format if required;

• Enables the concept of "testing centers", more precisely, institutions or locations specialized in conducting testing;

• Powerful reporting and data collection capabilities;

• Built-in scalable and strong technologies in order to support large number of simultaneous users.

Case Studies

Certification and Licensing

Many industries require regular and renewable types of certifications for various work positions and roles, for example:

-Driving Tests;

-Machinery operators;

-Real Estate Agents;

-Clerks;

-Health workers;

-Transportation – pilots, flight attendants, flight control workers, truck drivers, taxi drivers...;

-Government workers;

-Security guards.


YouTestMe system can generate either the identical test for each candidate or a unique one based on the given criteria. The system can provide:

- Means of testing through web interface;

- Paper copies of the test if required;

- Instant results available to both candidate and test managers;

- A paper copy (printout) of the performance;

- An archive containing performance information;

- Sending notifications by email about specified events;

- Data collection (personal information, statistics, etc.);

- Various kinds of reports (statistics, performance analysis, etc.);

- Data feed to other systems (for example – college master database, etc.);

- All functionalities and data are instantly available - anywhere.



There are many advantages to this approach in testing and certification and we will list just a few of them:

1. Minimal or even no amount of paperwork;

2. Drastically reduced amount of time invested in creating and grading the test;

3. No need for manual archiving of test results;

4. Results of the test are instantly available to both test participants and test managers;

5. Testing can be done not only faster, but also on any location, while involving minimal effort from the test managers.
