  1. Can't export question pools yet, except with workaround – create a quiz that pulls a random selection from a pool, when export it exports all questions. Bug fix may make that no longer work.
  2. Calculated questions can't be imported from MyUCDavis
  3. Also, some things lost - documented in this gap analysis
  • There seems to be an upper limit on the number of questions you can have in a question pool SAK-61 – this may be an authoring limitation as well

Some things that are ahead in the import/export space:

...

  • Interest in sharing assessment types so they could be modified on a departmental basis, for example //bugs.sakaiproject.org/jira/browse/SAK-5199http://bugs.sakaiproject.org/jira/browse/ and SAK-3526
  • Request for more flexibility to accomodate students with special needs - allow instructor to adjust time available on a student-by-student basis SAK-3427

...

  • Big thing is adding question types – adding calculated/algorithmic questions
  • Currently, to share question pools between users requires import/export - can't do it staying within the authoring tool itself
  • Copying question pools doesn't actually copy questions, it creates links SAK-3526
  • During authoring the list of question-types available is not context-sensitive SAK-1379 – this could be a feature or a limitation depending on POV.

Delivery

  • Performance is key here. Need the most fundamental issue here, both in terms of speed and reliability
    • Most likely we will need some kind of load testing procedure in place to ensure that we don't repeat the problems of MyUCDavis
    .
  • High-stake quizzes seem to be a ways off –

Limitations

  • Request exists for more flexibility in how feedback is managed SAK-4005
    • , currently it doesn't seem like anybody is developing this
  • The ability to administer high-stake quizzes through Samigo is not yet supported in a realistic way (see Limitations below)

Limitations

  • Timing of feedback may need to become more flexible SAK-4005
  • Help pages are not yet context sensitive SAK-4103
  • Need a high-stakes question type SAK-1749
    • Some clarification is needed about the distinction between a linear assessment and a high-stakes quiz SAK-3211
    • There are various security issues that may be prerequisites to high-stakes quizzes SAK-1905
  • Generally, it doesn't seem like the test-taking is bulletproof enough yet, clicking too fast on buttons can cause problems, etc. SAK-6553 and SAK-6692

Reports

Minimal functionality at the moment.
