• Resumen

  • This paper focuses on a single aspect of learning management systems, i.e. knowledge assessment. The developed web applicationenables simple knowledge testing by providing the means for creating exam questions carefully. Questions used are MCSA—multiple choice, single answer. Guidelines for creating these questions are presented, while some additional well-established andreputable practices in education such as instant feedback (error and correct answer display) are implemented. The applicationdifferentiates between groups of users such as students and teachers, each with its own rights and obligations. Special attention isgiven to cheating prevention and application abuse. Both functionality of the application and user satisfaction were tested. Theresults obtained imply the need for this kind of tool in education.
