Hi Everybody...

I am currently working with a tool to create online-assessments, and i need some practice before i use it for my work. i thought of trying it for something useful... stars Laughing

it works in a way that i creat a database of questions, all kinds are possible... from these data i create an assessment that can be performed online, feedback is given immediately.
(all you need is a webbrowser).

this can be used to estimeate one's skill for example... i dont intend to publish a ranking or something, it is just for fun and everybody can check his abilities...

what i need is some questions i can insert into the database.
all levels are welcome, so very easy ones like
"A Joat can scout easily in the early game" (Yes/No)
or
"Mineral Alchemy LRT is only useful in the very early game"(Yes/No)

or very funny ones like
"chaff is very efficient against beamers" Smile(Yes/No)

or more complex ones like
"How many chaff are needed to sweep a minefield of 120ly radius"
(about 50 / about 300 / about 2000)
or
"Is a mass-packet with 3000kT warp10 capabal of killing an undefended world with distance 145 ly when you got a MD 7 ?"

I will try to put question into groups...
like
"race design"
"economy"
"warfighting"
....
and such things...

but i am not sure yet...
in the end i want a lot of questions, from VERY easy ones
to VERY difficult ones. so everybody who performs that test
has a score in the end (test will be done anonymously of course)
and can see how experienced he is compared to others.

maybe i will publish the average results or something...

any comments/ideas?

any questions you would like to see?

something important:
questions should be possible to abswer objectively, so a question
like "Nubs are better than DNs" is hard to answer... most people think Nubs are better in any case, but some say DNs are of equal
strenght with missles... other say... whatever... it is difficult...

send me your ideas, i will see what i can do...

you can email me to m@il4robert.spam.de (remove .spam),
makes it easier for me to check that...

thanks

robert

ps: not only multiple choice questions are possible, also hot-spots, where you select areas on a diagram... ah... a wide variety of questions will be possible...
