A Dynamic System to Generate Randomly Relocated Multiple Choice Questions Using Ready-made Arrays

In this paper, we proposed a system to generate randomly relocated multiple choice questions using ready-made arrays instead of random functions in order to reduce the time to make test set. Before making the test set, such as, multiple choice questions consisting of questions, their correct answers and their distractors, first predefined multiple choice questions sets are chosen and then the selected questions are relocated randomly using a ready-made array. Finally, multiple choices for each question are relocated using another ready-made array. The relocated answers for each question are sent to a correct answer array to check applicant’s answers later. Applicants take the tests to choose answers for multiple choice questions to evaluate applicants’ abilities. Thus, the method to make randomly relocated tests set using arrays is executed faster than one using random functions.
