Mark errors/words

How to create a question:

1. enter a title and optionally another author, a description and a status in the life cycle for your question.
2. enter your question.
3. enter the text in which the errors/words are to be selected in the “Mark errors/words” input field. Mark each word to be selected with a hash (e.g. #word) and a group of words with double brackets: ((several words))
4. click on the Analyze text button.
5. ILIAS analyzes the text and creates a text input field in the Error data section for each selected word or group of words.
6. enter the points for each correctly selected word in the Error data section.
7. under Incorrect selections, enter how many points are to be deducted for incorrectly selected words.
8. click on the Save button.
9. ILIAS accepts your entries.

Helpful tips for creating:

  • Depending on the question, make sure that the text is correct: Typos made by mistake can be selected and lead to points being deducted!
  • If you want to enlarge or reduce the answer text, enter the size of the text as a percentage of the normal size under Text size. If you do not enter a value, the normal size (100 percent) will be used.

Instructions for scoring the question:

  • In the Error data section, enter the points for the selected words or word groups. You can also enter Correct text.
  • Under Incorrect selections, you determine how many points are deducted for an incorrectly marked word or group of words. Enter the number of points with the minus sign in front, e.g. “-1”.
  • To prevent participants from receiving negative points for the question, you can select the radio button “Change negative points per question to ‘0 points’” in the Settings tab on the Evaluation page of the test item.
