Assessments Overview

Knowledge Anywhere's Assessment Tool allows Administrators to fully control and edit manually created Assessments, as well as AI Assessments generated from a document or copy-pasted text.

Knowledge Anywhere's Assessments tool can assist in creating instant content for your learners. It's a powerful tool to provide additional content to your learners, review what your learners have retained from courses, and provide deeper insights. 

 

The Details

The Assessments work by inputting content to create a question bank that your learners can take, whether documents, text, or manually creating questions. In the case of documents and text, the LMS will use AI to automatically create questions and answers for the assessment. This assessment can be assigned to learners for them to take. Even better, these assessments have their special reports so you can see line by line how a specific learner might have performed. 

Assessments are located in the content section, and can be created by selecting "Add Course > Assessment.

An assessment's layout is similar to an eLearning course. There's an Information and Configuration tab, but things start to look different when looking at the assessment tab.

There's a passing score that can be set, or marked active/inactive. Other options may appear here in the future. 

Assessments go through a unique creation process depending on the type when you choose "add assessment" at the bottom of the tab

 

Assessment Creation Types

Document - Documents that you may have already uploaded can be converted to an assessment!

If a document is able to be converted into an assessment, there's a column in the documents section which will show a checkbox with a circle.

 

Text - Choosing Text will bring you directly to creation screen and allow you to copy and paste up to 15,000 characters, and have an assessment generated. 

 

Manual - By Choosing Manual, this will start the assessment creation process and allow to create questions one by one. 

Question Pool

The Question Pool is where quiz questions are stored. After creating a quiz, you will be directed to the question pool screen.

The above quiz was created via a document, so the "Main" pool which is the default, already has the 15 questions that were generated from that document. If necessary, a second pool could be created with different questions to provide more variety for the quiz. Select "add question pool" and give it a name, and it will list under the main pool.

By selecting a question pool, There's several options, like editing the name, and, selecting a certain number of questions from that pool for the assessment. 

If you have multiple question pools, You can choose to utilize a number of questions from each pool. If you're utilizing 6 questions from the main pool, and choose 5 from the second pool, your learner would get 11 questions total. If All Questions is selected for both pools, if you have 15 questions in the main pool, and 1 question in the second pool, your learners would get 16 questions total. 

You could possibly use three question pools to organize easy, medium, and hard questions, and control the amount of each is in that assessment. 

Editing Questions

The "View Questions and Answers" on the quiz information will display all questions in a a list form. Utilize the options on the right to edit or delete a question.

Changing an answer to something more in depth, or, altering the feedback for an incorrect answer may improve the overall quality of the assessment. There is also an option to randomize the order of answers for learners, so learners cant memorize the answer order.
