[QTI] question on preConditions

[Anthony Lymer]

Hello everybody,

 

Thank you very much for all the answers on my previous question..

 

I have another question about preconditions in QTI 2.1.

As I said in my other mail, I don't consider to use the QTI element
responseProcessing or any outcomeVariables.

Would it be conform to QTI 2.1 if I don't use responseProcessing, but still
use preconditions? 

I would save the answers during the test in a database and if a precondition
has to be evaluated, get the saved response and check if the user answered
the question correctly.

 

Below are sample xml docs, to make my idea clear (hopefully :-)): 

 

AssessmentItem:

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<assessmentItem xmlns="http://www.imsglobal.org/xsd/imsqti_v2p0"

    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

    xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.imsglobal.org/xsd/imsqti_v2p0
imsqti_v2p0.xsd"

    identifier=" item1" title="item1" adaptive="false"
timeDependent="false">

                <responseDeclaration identifier="RESPONSE"
cardinality="multiple" baseType="identifier">

                                <correctResponse>

                                      <value>answer1</value>

                                </correctResponse>

                </responseDeclaration>

                <itemBody>

                                <choiceInteraction
responseIdentifier="RESPONSE" shuffle="false" maxChoices="0">

                                                <simpleChoice
identifier="answer1"> answer text 1 </simpleChoice>

                                                <simpleChoice
identifier="answer2"> answer text 2 </simpleChoice>

                                </choiceInteraction>

                </itemBody>

</assessmentItem>

 

 

AssessmentSection (the AssessmentTest part and other assessmentSections were
left out, to make the mail shorter):

 

 <assessmentSection identifier="section1" visible="true" title=" section1">

<preCondition>

<match>

<baseValue baseType="identifier">answer1</baseValue>

<variable identifier=" item1.RESPONSE"/>

</match>

</preCondition>

<assessmentItemRef identifier="item2" href=" item2.xml"/>

<assessmentItemRef identifier="item3 " href=" item3.xml "/>

 </assessmentSection>

 

Thanks a lot,

 

Anthony
