Composites allow users to create structured question groups that include both content items and questions. These groups maintain dependencies between related questions, ensuring that they are presented together even when tests use randomized selection.
Using composites, you can mix various question types, text, multimedia, and randomization settings to build interactive and adaptive assessments.
Every Composite consists of one or more Content Groups, each containing structured question sets.
Users can add Content Groups each having their own title, description, folder structure and content items.
Each Content Group can include rich content blocks such as text, media or mathematical equations, allowing for context-based question sequences.
A Composite’s content can be either established during its creation by adding content items or modified later using the same editing option. This option is accessible through the Content items section at the bottom left of the content group detail panel, which can be opened either via the +Add Content Group button for new groups or the Edit button for existing ones.
At the Content items panel, specific content can be entered using the +Add Item button, and questions that will take place inside can be:
The Edit Button allows users to modify the question text, type, answering choices, and other settings.
The Delete Button permanently removes a question from the Composite.
The Up and Down Arrow Buttons let users reorder the sequence of questions within a Composite.
A middle icon in the question panel indicates whether a question originates from the Question Bank or was created directly within the Content Group. If a question is not part of the Question Bank, clicking the middle icon allows users to:
Questions can be marked as fixed, required or ineffective regarding their status in the assessment.
Each question’s Point value can be adjusted directly using the Point Edit Box in the content modification section.
Additionally, a question’s scoring conditions and dimensions can be configured through a more detailed interface that provides extra options such as multipliers and tags, ensuring greater flexibility in assessment design.
Users can choose between Single Column or Double Column layouts.
When using Double Column, content can be placed either on the left or right side, aligning questions accordingly.
Rich text formatting is available, enabling formatted text, media and mathematical equations in both content and questions.
Composites support Random Question Selectors, allowing test creators to:
A Composite is a structured question group that includes both content items and questions. It allows test creators to organize related questions together while supporting multimedia, flexible layouts, and randomization options.
Composites ensure that related questions stay together, even in randomized tests, maintaining contextual integrity. They also enable a mix of fixed and randomly selected questions while supporting multimedia-rich content.
Fixed questions always appear in the test as they are set, whereas randomized questions are pulled dynamically from a question pool, ensuring variation in different test attempts.
Yes! If a question is created within a content group and is not already in the Question Bank, you can add it by clicking the middle icon in the question panel. This allows you to select or create a folder where the question will be saved and assign relevant tags for better organization and filtering. Once saved, the question will be available in the Question Bank, allowing it to be reused in other assessments or randomized selections.
Yes! When importing a question from the Question Bank into a content group, you have two options:
This flexibility allows you to either maintain consistency across multiple assessments or modify specific questions without altering the original source.
