An Easy Assessment Generator with Thousands of Free Questions and Textbook Question Banks

It’s unlikely that any teacher would ever say their favorite part about the profession is creating tests that accurately demonstrate all of their students’ knowledge and abilities. In fact, it is generally understood to be one of the least exciting parts of the teaching job. 

What if I told you there was a program that could change that? Echo360 has developed the Echosystem, which is a portfolio of engagement solutions that is architected and deployed to achieve engagement and learning outcomes. Included in the portfolio is EchoExam, an assessment generator that makes test creation just a few clicks away.

 

How Does An Assessment Generator work?

Not all assessment generators are equal, but EchoExam is the best one available. Our assessment generator comes with thousands of subject-related free questions. Also available are thousands of questions related to specific textbooks from dozens of publishers. If your students need a test on Unit 4 of your current textbook, the likelihood is that you can automatically create an exam made specifically for that unit and that book.

EchoExam comes with a quick test wizard that allows you to easily create assessments. You just choose topics and associated question banks to create a test in minutes. The assessment generator allows you to choose how many of each question type you want on your exam. Choose from multiple-choice, numeric response, short answer, and more. You can then review the questions that are pulled from your question banks and swap them out as desired. 

There are many other ways to customize your exams. You can modify the look, reorder questions, and apply test styles to your generated tests.

The EchoExam assessment generator also provides a number of options for administering tests. You can protect the integrity of tests by scrambling the question order, scrambling the multiple-choice question option order, and randomizing which questions from your question banks get used on the exam. You can even offer different iterations of the same question in some instances. It’s easy to make up to 26 versions of the same test with just a few clicks. 

If you choose to administer an exam through the EchoExam Test Manager, it can also be automatically graded. You can have your students use bubble sheets, response devices, or LAN-based testing to take tests administered through the Test Manager. 

What are the best features of Echo360’s assessment generator?

The EchoExam assessment generator has features for bimodal questions and dynamic content. Some of the questions provided support multiple question types such as multiple-choice and short response. With our assessment generator, you can modify the difficulty of a question by toggling the question type from one to the other. 

Other questions come with dynamic content. This allows you to change the question by modifying information about it. An example of this would be to change the values on a graph and our assessment generator will automatically recalculate the answer choices on a multiple-choice math question. You can also use this as a quick way to generate assignments that reinforce specific concepts.

EchoExam integrates seamlessly with a number of LMS solutions. You can create exams using the assessment generator and export them into several supported LMS such as Canvas, Blackboard, Brightspace, Schoology, and more.

Of course, testing is only a means to determine how well your students have learned the material you have taught them. That’s why the EchoExam assessment generator comes with a robust set of metrics you can access regarding performance. You can view results at the class and individual level, and also view results by question. 

You can also include learning thresholds on the reports to easily see whether your whole class or individual students are meeting these benchmarks. This gives you actionable data so you can intercede with a student who needs help or adjust instruction methods if necessary.
