  • Abstract
    Web-based learning management systems and course management systems provide an effective and instructive environment with interactivities for online teachers and learners. Self-exams or auto-graded quizzes are good ways to confirm how well you understand the contents and to get to know which part should be learned more. In most LMS/CMS it is not so quick and easy to create auto-graded quizzes in effective various formats. We have made a prototype tool enabling rapid creation of quiz data importable to Moodle, a popular opensource LMS. The tool is a Web application supporting almost all the common Web browsers and it has only minimum number of input boxes so that quiz creators only have to make fewer copy-and-paste actions needed to complete quizzes. You can use the authoring tool intuitively like wysiwyg applications without many trials and errors to get your quizzes in a preferable form.
