-182. (canceled)
A non-transitory computer-readable storage media encoded with a computer program including instructions executable by a processor to create a non-dichotomous answer processing application for e-learning, the application comprising:
- a) a prompt module, displaying a non-dichotomous generative assessment item comprising a series of two or more answer choices;
- b) a recording module, receiving a student answer to each answer choice in the series, wherein each student answer comprises an answer selection or an answer non-selection;
- c) a storage module, storing the received student answer to each answer choice in the series in a binary format, wherein any answer selection is stored as a first binary number and any answer non-selection is stored as a second binary number;
- and
- d) a concatenation module, concatenating every binarily stored student answer in the series to form a concatenated answer, wherein the concatenated answer does not comprise a delimiter.
A computer-implemented method for an e-learning non-dichotomous answer processing, the method comprising:
- a) displaying, by the computer, a non-dichotomous generative assessment item comprising a series of two or more answer choices;
- b) receiving, by the computer, a student answer to each answer choice in the series, wherein each student answer comprises an answer selection or an answer non-selection;
- c) storing, by the computer, the received student answer to each answer choice in the series in a binary format, wherein any answer selection is stored as a first binary number and any answer non-selection is stored as a second binary number;
- and
- d) concatenating, by the computer, every binarily stored student answer in the series to form a concatenated answer, wherein the concatenated answer does not comprise a delimiter.
A computer-implemented system comprising:
- a digital processing device comprising:
- at least one processor, an operating system configured to perform executable instructions, a memory, and a computer program including instructions executable by the digital processing device to create a non-dichotomous answer processing application for e-learning, the application comprising:
- a) a prompt module, displaying a non-dichotomous generative assessment item comprising a series of two or more answer choices;
- b) a recording module, receiving a student answer to each answer choice in the series, wherein each student answer comprises an answer selection or an answer non-selection;
- c) a storage module, storing the received student answer to each answer choice in the series in a binary format, wherein any answer selection is stored as a first binary number and any answer non-selection is stored as a second binary number;
- and
- d) a concatenation module, concatenating every binarily stored student answer in the series to form a concatenated answer, wherein the concatenated answer does not comprise a delimiter.
