Image section: x of n | Scheer IMC - Customer Documentation (EN)

The "Image section: x of n" test question type marks several areas within a picture as the answer, rather than choosing from a list of text options.

How It Is Built

The "Image section: x of n" type is configured through a tabbed structure covering the question's description, its available languages, the question content and its image, the possible answers, and the areas marked within the image.

Keywords

Search terms associated with the question, used to find it in the question pool.

Test Mode

The test mode describes the purpose of a test or test question. When adding questions to a test, a targeted search can be carried out with a specific learning test mode. The test mode saved in each test file includes a reference points indicating which questions should be selected.

Average Processing Time (Seconds)

The completion for test questions are added together and equate to the total completion times for the test containing these test questions. If “No time limit” is selected here, no time will be planned in for the question when adding up. This option should only be selected if, in principle, no completion time controls will be used in tests. When the test is configured to use the timer per test, this value will be used as a countdown on the question itself.
When using the question times to compute an overall test times, the value in seconds must not represent a partial minute. If the total test time results in an incomplete minute, it will be rounded to the nearest full minute.

Level of Educational Objectives

The level of educational objectives describes the reason why a question has been included in the test. When adding questions to a test, a targeted search can be carried out with a specific level of educational objectives. The level of educational objectives saved in each test file includes a reference points indicating which questions should be selected.

Active

If disabled, the question which was in its previous version added to a test or feedback, will be removed as part of the automatic update process, if configured to run.

Arrangement

Positions the answer area to the left of, right of, above, or below the question text.

Creating an Image Area Question

An image is uploaded on the "Question" tab (maximum 800 × 500 pixels), possible answers are created, and the corresponding areas within the image are defined on the "Image Sections" tab.

Scoring

Since multiple areas can be selected, points can be awarded either as a single overall value for the question or individually for each possible answer. Selecting all areas can optionally be configured to award zero points, as can selecting none.

Example

Marking which objects in an image are used for locomotion.
