IMS QTI Authoring

Assessment of students' work is a critically important part of teaching/learning of any subject. According to Biggs (1999), teaching, learning, and assessment interact in new learning, requiring that curriculum objectives, teaching/learning activities, and assessment tasks are aligned. Assessment may be undertaken at the beginning/middle/end of a period of study, as diagnostic assessment, formative assessment, and summative assessment. When developing an online course (e.g., a unit of learning) in Learning Networks, the learning designer may need to align assessment activities with learning/teaching activities. Therefore, an integrated authoring environment is required in Learning Network infrastructure for specifying an integrated learning, teaching, and assessment process as a unit of learning.
