Jorre Vannieuwenhuyze submitted the mcexam package. Version number: 0.3 2017-05-02 License type: lppl1.3c Summary description: LaTeX package for creating randomized Multiple Choice questions> Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The MCexam package is a LaTeX package that automatically randomly permutes the order of questions and answer options in different versions of a multiple choice exam/test. Next to the exam versions themselves, the package also allows printing a concept version of the exam, a key table with the correct answers or points, and a document with solutions and explanation per exam version. The package also allows writing an R code which processes the results of the exam and calculates the grades. The package was developed for large-scale randomized multiple choice exams at my department. The functionalities of this package may overlap with the esami package and the AMC program but there were some special requirements at my department which are not included in these packages. In particular the MCexam provides the following features: - The possible answer permutation patterns are completely flexible and can entirely be specified by the user. - Typesetting the answer options is completely flexible with the MCanswers environment. - At my university, the students have to fill in a standard one-page answer form and unprocessed results from these forms are directly provided to the examiner. The package writes an R code which processes and analyses these results. - Although this is subjective, I find the MCexam commands less dense and more efficient. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/mcexam More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/mcexam We are supported by the TeX User Groups.
