APP DESCRIPTION:

Download this app named eTests.

eTests is a PHP/MySQL web-based platform allowing to set formative evaluations using multiple choice questions. It has been developed during a Phd in education at the University of Namur, Belgium.

To the students it offers feedback and detailed results to compare with pairs. To teachers it offers a way to analyze questions, validate them, follow the classroom trends of answers, edit questions, surveys, contextualize results regarding to studies sections, period of the year, etc.

This software is actually in pre-alpha because some not essentials features are still missing.

eTests uses several opensources libraries. See the 'Credits' section in the README file.

There is no documentation for the moment. It will be done in the wiki as soon as possible.

eTests was presented at FOSDEM 2013 during a lightning talk http://youtu.be/BM0QpD86je0
