Thinking About Test Questions (and Choosing Interactions) According to Task Type
Simple tallying of item scores
The simplest way of getting a test score is to add together all the marks of all the items (the questions) in the test. If you choose this method, the test score which appears in the results table for the test is the sum of all the marks the test-taker achieved in all the questions, along with the marks available. The ratio of correct answers to incorrect answers is also calculated. If, for example, the test-taker got 24 points out of a possible 40, this will appear in the results table as follows:
SCORE_TOTAL: 24
SCORE_TOTAL_MAX: 40
SCORE_RATIO: 0.6
Note: Details on how to configure this option are given in the chapter 'Summary and configuration of scoring methods' below.
