If you ask a K12 teacher what their favorite part of teaching will be, odds are they aren’t going to mention creating, administering, or grading tests. That’s extra work that they frequently do on their own time, taking away from their time with their family and friends, doing the things they most enjoy.
That is, unless you talk to a teacher who uses Echo360’s EchoExam – featuring EchoExam. EchoExam is a powerful online multiple-choice test creator that also creates other types of exam questions depending on the teacher’s requirements. Continue reading to learn how EchoExam gives teachers back their leisure time and makes creating, administering, and grading tests, if not pleasant, at least a whole lot easier.
When you look into using a multiple-choice answer generator, EchoExam should be your first and only stop. Use EchoExam’s quick test wizard to use question banks that focus on the topic your students are learning and create a test in minutes. You can even choose how many multiple-choice, short-answer, numeric response, or other types of questions you want on each exam.
Once you have used the multiple-choice generator to create a test, you can spend a few minutes modifying the exam so it looks just the way you want. You can review each question to be sure it’s one you want, and if not, you can swap it out with another question that zeroes in on the topic better. You can apply test styles to the generated test to get the look that you want so students aren’t confused or distracted with a hard-to-understand layout. You can also reorder questions if you choose.
In fact, you can create multiple versions of the same test to keep students from the temptation of sharing answers. You can rearrange the order of the questions on each iteration of the test, rearrange the order multiple-choice answer options appear, and randomize the questions from your question bank that get used on each copy of the test. With some questions, you can offer different iterations of the same question.
Bimodal questions offer the opportunity to support multiple question types, such as multiple-choice and short answer. You can adjust this to make the questions easier or more challenging as needed. There are other questions that have dynamic content, meaning you can change the question by modifying information about it. As an example, the multiple-choice answer generator can recalculate multiple-choice answer options based on different variables entered into a graph.
EchoExam is connected to most textbooks so that you can get question banks that come directly from the textbook you are using in class and the unit your students are studying. This enables you to create the most relevant, effective testing tools with just a few clicks.
EchoExam’s multiple-choice generator software, EchoExam, is not just for creating exams, however. You can use the same features to create assignments for your students when they need to review specific concepts. You can even create individualized assignments for groups of students who are having a hard time with the same concepts.
You’ve probably also lost valuable free time sitting around grading your student’s tests and assignments. With EchoExam, that’s all in the past. Assignments and tests generated through our multiple-choice worksheet generator and test generator can be automatically graded using the Test Manager. Whether students use bubble sheets, response devices, or LAN-based testing to take the exams, they can be automatically graded in real time.
EchoExam is also easy to integrate with various K12 LMS programs such as Canvas, Brightspace, Moodle, Blackboard, Schoology, and more. You can view scores by person, by class, or by question. This information helps you discover students who need extra support or teaching materials that need updating. With actionable metrics like these, you can keep all your students at the required learning levels.
Echo360’s Echosystem is a portfolio of engagement solutions that includes more than just the EchoExam. Also included is EchoVideo, which enables you to make and edit videos for class quickly and easily; EchoAuthor, which enables you to create courses and collaborate with other teachers to do so; and EchoEngage, which is Echo360’s dynamic learning platform.
