Abstract

In this work we present a method to produce parametric questions, which can be useful for various classes and institutions. Our method generates exams with different texts but the same content, hence the same level of difficulty. We made several interfaces in order to gather information about institutions, programmers, courses, topics, classes, exams and questions. Our method makes questions belong to topics, which in their turn belong to courses. Hereby we detail our process of producing parametric questions, which utilizes a bit of LATEX and mainly some parts in Python. With this programming language we define the parameters inside the statement of the questions. The presented results show that we were able to build an efficient system even in its first version defined on web pages written in Django. Our system is free and it offers to teachers and professors the possibility of generating and correcting tests in an automatic and comfortable way. Since the exams are printed with different texts but the same content, then even for hundreds or thousands of students the method will be fast, effective and also efficient.
