ACME - Testing
One of the features of ACME is the
testing modules. You can easily make up mini quizes and even do
in class tests in ACME. There are different types of test questions
that can be created and even a security feature that makes them
locked to students till you give out a password. It is also possible
to only allow the test to be taken during a specific time and day.

Multiple Choice Questions
Multiple choice questions can be automatically
marked by ACME. Creating a test only using mutiple choice questions
is a great way to give small quizzes either in class or as homework.
You can design mutiple choice question tests so that they can be
retaken and that the questions are chosen at random from a generated
list.

Short Answer Questions
Short answer questions are designed
for doing fill in the blank questions. You can type in different
responses so that the test will recognize the right response worded
different ways. These questions will be automatically marked by
ACME, but it is always good to check the answers to makes sure that
points were given for a correct answer that may have been mistaken
as incorrect.

question requires you to read the answers and manually mark them.
