Abstract

Although online tests are a quite popular form of assessing learning outcomes in traditional Learning Management Systems, it is quite difficult to deliver the wealth of existing re-usable QTI-compliant tests into Web 2.0 style Personal Learning Environments. This paper addresses both pedagogical scenarios and technical solution for using QTI self-tests in blogs, personal e-portfolios and social media platforms. The empirical part describes the development of the original QTI Assessment Proxy Service and QTI self-test player based on the Wookie widget engine.
