What is an ExamView Question Bank?

    A set of questions classified by grade level, subject, standard, etc. used to generate study materials and tests.
    It is part of the ExamView Assessment Suite and ExamView Test Manager.

Types of  ExamView Questions  

• ExamView Questions can either be static or dynamic.
  
  • Static questions are the same every time you use the bank.
  • Dynamic questions have built in variables so that every time you open the question, parts of it change- for example the numeric values and the situation change. However, the goal of the question, the difficulty level and the principles used to solve the question remain the same.Such questions are invaluable both to educators and students!  Dynamic questions sampler
• Exam View Questions can be
  • Multiple choice - this is great for online testing or interactive classroom use with CPS
  • Numeric response
  • True/False, Short Answer and other types
