Abstract

Current on-line testing systems are lacks of supplying versatile interactive answering alternatives such as click and select, drag and drop, link, collide and magnetize. This research have integrated the reusable component and framework technology, and composed an interactive item template software component construction. Each interactive item template component ("IITC" in abbreviation) which is created by using Flash Actionscript technology symbolizes a different operation and interactive scenario. We also define a script language in XML format to flatten or unflatten the item objects. Meanwhile, C/C++ language was employed to develop corresponding visual item authoring system which can dynamically load IITC to add new types of item template to create new items. Under our software component model, software component developer can easily cultivate IITC with the rich multimedia function provided by Actionscript language. Visual item authoring system with dynamic loading IITC offers user a simple way to use IITC. The script language of IITC has also added diversity to the interactive scenario of each IITC.
