A <learningAssessment> topic consists of assessment questions for students to answer. An assessment can be one question or a series of questions and can be placed before or after other learning content in a map. Assessments can act as pre-tests to place students or post-tests to verify students’ retention of material.
This topic type is particularly helpful since it allows you to create content for student versions and answer keys simultaneously.
The main section of the topic goes within the <learningAssessmentbody> element. Within that, questions are contained in the <lcInteraction> element, but the body can also include other optional elements:
- <lcIntro>
- <lcObjectives>
- <lcSummary>
The L&T provides a variety of of assessment questions, including mulitple choice, true/false, matching, and more. These interactions are defined in the learningDomain2, which is explained in detail in the next topic.
