Test Question Constructing Method And Apparatus, Test Sheet Fabricated Using The Method, And Computer-Readable Recording Medium Storing Test Question Constructing Program For Executing The Method
First Claim
1. A test question constructing apparatus, comprising:
- a receiving unit which receives multiple questions and meta information having attributes of the individual questions through a network;
a first converting unit which converts the individual questions input through the receiving unit into data files having contents and typesetting information;
a database which stores the multiple data files and meta information of the individual questions passing through the receiving unit;
a correct answer arrangement generating unit which includes;
a test sheet information reading section which reads multiple test sheet information for constructing a test sheet from the database,a choice-by-question arrangement extracting section which mixes choices of each question on the basis of the read multiple test sheet information and extracts choice arrangements having a degree of mixing more than a prescribed degree of mixing,a correct answer arrangement deciding section which randomly selects one choice arrangement among the extracted choice arrangements for each test question by testees, and decides a correct answer from the selected choice arrangement as a correct answer of the corresponding test question, anda first correct answer arrangement adjusting section which checks whether or not correct answers in a correct answer arrangement decided for each testee are poorly distributed and, when the correct answers are poorly distributed, performs a distribution processing; and
a second converting unit which generates and outputs test question files having different correct answer arrangements by the testees on the basis of final correct answer arrangement information from the correct answer arrangement generating unit.

Abstract
The present invention relates to a test question constructing method and apparatus, a test sheet fabricated using the method, and a computer-readable medium storing a test question constructing program for executing the method. In a case where multiple testees simultaneously take a test, correct answer arrangements are made different by the testees through mixing of choices. Further, the correct answer arrangement is adjusted such that correct answers may be not poorly distributed to a specific choice. In particular, the correct answer arrangements of adjacent testees are adjusted to be different from one another. Therefore, cheating, for example, one testee shows other testees the answers or sneaks a look at an answer sheets of other testees, can be prevented. According to the present invention, an ability to classify the testees which was a blind point of a multiple-choice objective test can be markedly improved.

4. A test question constructing method, comprising:
-
a first process of causing a receiving unit to receive multiple questions and meta information having attributes of the individual questions through a network; a second process of causing a first converting unit to convert the individual questions input through the receiving unit into data files having contents and typesetting information and causing a database to store the data files; a third process of causing a correct answer arrangement generating unit to read multiple test sheet information from the database so as to construct questions and choices by questions of a test subject, to adjust a choice arrangement of each question by testees according to a prescribed degree of mixing so as to generate different correct answer arrangements by the testees, and to perform a distribution processing depending on whether or not the correct answers in each of the generated correct answer arrangements by the testees are poorly distributed; and a fourth process of causing a second converting unit to generate and output test question files having different correct answer arrangements by the testees on the basis of final correct answer arrangement information obtained in the third process. - View Dependent Claims (5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10)
