Abstract

The assessment is the most effectively tool for the teachers to realized the learning status of the learners. The effectiveness of e-assessment is exceedingly related to the content richness of the itembank. This paper proposed an improved method to integrated various itembanks into an unified itembank. These integrated itembanks can be with heterogeneous schemas. The experimental result shows that the proposed method is more effective than the previous work.
