Donald P. Story submitted the
thorshammer
package.
Version: 2020-01-13
License: lppl1.2
Summary description: Assessment based on AcroTeX quizzes
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
WARNING: Adobe Acrobat DC or Adobe Acrobat XI is required for
post PDF-creation. Any PDF-creator application is supported.
This package implements an idea by Thorsten G. for assessment
using PDF quizzes produced by the exerquiz package.
Thorsten not only wanted to pose multiple choice, multiple
selection, and fill-in type questions, but also wanted to ask
extended response questions that would be manually evaluated.
Once the quiz is graded, the instructor may optionally pass
the quizzes through an Acrobat action sequence to extract
the student's name and grade from the quizzes. The extracted
information is saved to a tab-delimited TXT file. The instructor
can later merge this file into a larger spreadsheet.
If intriguing, install thorshammer and try this workflow.
