R Package moodlequizR: Fully Randomized Moodle Tests (2411.08032v1)

Abstract: This article describes the R package moodlequizR, which allows the user to easily create fully randomized quizzes and exams for Moodle, or indeed any online assessment platform that uses XML files for importing questions. In such a quiz the students are presented with the essentially same problem, but with various parts sufficiently different to make cheating very difficult. For example, the problem might require the students to find the sample mean but each student is presented with a different data set. Moodle does include some facilities for randomization, but these are rudimentary and wholly insufficient for a course in Statistics. The package is available on CRAN.
