WebPractest©
was designed by Gary A. Smith of the College of William & Mary
to help developers of instructional materials create self-correcting
exercises or tests for distribution on the Internet. Written in
Javascript, the program manipulates HTML documents, displaying the
text and images contained in them, but substituting text boxes for
words that the developer has marked as items to be practiced or
tested. The program works only with version 4.0 or higher of Internet
Explorer or Netscape Navigator.
In Self-Paced Language
Program courses, WebPractest is used to generate pre-tests that
students use to evaluate their understanding of course concepts.
