Opus Pro includes a sophisticated but automatic question and scoring system. It makes both simple quizzes and comprehensive tests straightforward and quick to create.

Based on criteria used in real-world elearning and education resources, key assessment and progress values are monitored automatically. Unlike other software however, all the functionality is fully accessible and customizable and lets you use the full power of Opus Pro when you need it.

Creating Questions

You can create questions simply by drawing them on the page

and then editing the answers and the scores attached to them by updating entries on a dialog.

The Question object is a container similar to an Opus frame. You can put any other Opus Pro object into the Question object, including other buttons, text, images or video (ideal for use with the YouTube support).

You can have more than one question on a page and you can set a single button to confirm the answers provided for all the questions on the page. You can even set drag and drop questions to retain their position automatically so the learner can move backwards and forwards through a test before confirming each question.

Question Types

The question object includes a range of ready made question types including:

• Multiple Choice
• Drag and Drop
• Diagram Label
• Percentage Slider
• Cloze Procedure
• In Sequence
• Match Drag
• Long Answer

Sophisticated Scoring Automatically

The new scoring system allows elearning with highly sophisticated score tracking without any additional programming. This includes the total score as a value or a percentage, and the total possible score the user might achieve even if they answer all the remaining questions correctly and much more. So you can, for example, fail a user as soon as they can no longer meet the competency threshold score, thus saving time for both trainer and trainee.

Text Input and Long Answers

The text input question allows very sophisticated checking very easily. You can type in a word or phrase which the user's answer must match or contain but to provide full versatility you can use standard search keywords such as AND, OR and NOT to create very comprehensive testing.

You can assign the text input to be checked against multiple answers which means you can check a large amount of text for a wide range of answers thereby allowing even long answers to be checked automatically.
