Question banks in Access LMS Evo support the creation of Assessments and Surveys. These banks feed into assessments either through manual selection or automatic inclusion in diagnostic assessments.

Both LMS Hub and LMS² sites can use pre-existing question banks to build Assessments and Surveys.

LMS² sites can also create custom question banks, enabling tailored assessment content.

Creating a question bank involves downloading a template, adding the required questions, and uploading the completed file.

Questions can be linked to specific content for use in diagnostic assessments. Existing question banks can be updated by downloading the current template, making changes, and re-uploading it to apply updates.

The below table details the available question types.

Question type

Description

Multiple choice

Choose from several answerable options.

Primarily suitable for Assessments.

Likert scale

Choose from several predetermined options with a different visual look to multiple choice.

Suitable for both Assessments and Surveys.

Range

Click and drag a slider to choose from a range of available options.

Primarily suitable for Surveys, as Range questions cannot be used for assessable questions.

FreeFormText

Type comments in response to the question presented.

Primarily suitable for Surveys as FreeFormText questions cannot be used for assessable questions.

Hotspot questions

Hotspot questions can also be added to a question bank to create interactive and visually engaging knowledge checks. These questions use uploaded images with clickable hotspots that serve as answer points.

Unlike standard questions, hotspot questions are not added via template. Instead, they are created individually within the question bank as needed.
