LifterLMS just released a powerful question bank feature into their Advanced Quizzes add-on.
What is a question bank?
A question bank helps prevent cheating by allowing instructors to create assessments with randomized questions pulled from a bank of questions.
Since different students receive different sets of questions from the same question bank, sharing answers or collaborating during exams becomes difficult. This ensures the integrity of the assessment process and promotes a fair evaluation of a student’s knowledge and skills.
For learning situations where quizzes can be taken repeatedly to reinforce learning, randomized question banks also allow students to broaden their assessment sources for subject competency.
