On the Dynamic Generation of Items Within an Assessment Test Using Genetic Algorithms

The generation of assessment test is a vast area within the educational assessment design process. In this matter, the type of the question is one of the most important parameters of this process, due to its impact on the development of the assessment implementation phase. This paper presents a development of a model of an assessment test generation using genetic algorithms with an additional type of item which is dynamically generated. The item has a form of a parametric structure, e.g. the quadratic function for a given set of parameters. The purpose of this paper is to present the schema of the additional part of the model and its integration within the assessment model developed and described in previous papers.
