Online assessment with STACK
Making individual feedback possible
Student growth is a hot topic within ETH right now, increasing the need for efficient and scalable assessment solutions. STACK is a Moodle question type particularly suitable for the large-scale assessment in quantitative disciplines: it can evaluate short text answers as mathematical expressions and check their correctness, ask for graphical solutions, implement complex decision trees for multi-question problems, and more. This allows for more flexibility compared to static multiple choice questions while still offering a fully automated grading/feedback process, including the possibility for partial credit.
In this event we will hear from the following presenters about their implementations of STACK questions in their lectures:
ETH Community of Practice
Together with LET we run a community of STACK users:
https://moodle-app2.let.ethz.ch/course/view.php?id=17592
You are welcome to join! We o er many useful links to further documentation, question banks, events, a forum for questions, etc.
Please let us know if there is interest in a STACK beginner’s workshop!
We’re happy to organize something.
