Global <strong>Test</strong> Question Definitions<br />
Question<br />
This is the trunk or entire test question. This is the initial text box in each question edit screen.<br />
Besides text, you can include pictures, special characters, random variables, and HTML formatting<br />
items using the Object menu or the toolbar in the Rich Text Editor.<br />
Followup<br />
Followup questions ask the student for elaboration on the original question. Example: If yes, why?<br />
Answer(s)<br />
Possible answers to the question.<br />
Explanation<br />
This option allows you to provide an explanation on the answer key.<br />
You may choose to include the correct answer and/or an optional explanation of the question and<br />
the intended student response.<br />
Optional hints<br />
This option allows you to provide the student with a hint to the answer. You can add multiple hints<br />
per question. The option to show/hide hints is available in the <strong>Online</strong> Settings menu.<br />
References<br />
Questions and Section Breaks can be tied together logically using references. Typically, this feature<br />
is used to allow a graphic or reading passage to precede a set of associated questions. <strong>EZ</strong> <strong>Test</strong><br />
uses the reference field to maintain this association.<br />
• Section Title is an alternative title to allow the question to be listed by this Selection Title<br />
when viewing the question from the Select Questions from Banks screen and the “list by<br />
title” option is checked in the source frame.<br />
• References should be a unique string of characters and placed in the Use as Reference<br />
field of the Section Break and each associated question’s Tie to Reference field. When <strong>EZ</strong><br />
<strong>Test</strong> sorts or scrambles questions, it keeps questions with common references together<br />
preceded by the section break.<br />
Note: When scrambling questions, section breaks which are references, yet have no<br />
questions in the test referencing them, will not be included when the test is previewed or<br />
saved.<br />
• Text Book Page(s) is an optional field that may be used to indicate on which textbook<br />
page(s), a particular question's subject matter is discussed. This field is only displayed in the<br />
answer key.<br />
• Long is an optional checkbox that allows you to specify that a question is permitted to span<br />
pages on output. That is, if you create a question that is longer than 1 printed page, this<br />
checkbox MUST be checked or else the output pagination will not be correct and may result<br />
in a question flowing off the page and loss of information on the test.<br />
