I will first start with saying I have very little knowledge of html or coding beyond some simple coding for course in Instructure Canvas (Learning Management System).
That being said I work at an elementary school and we are attempting to prepare our students for an online testing environment. One of the most difficult types questions for kids are gridded response questions. I was wondering if anyone knew how to code a gridded response question like the one in the link below. The boxes at the top will be empty space that the kids can fill in. I appreciate any help that can be provided! Have a great day! http://www.catpin.com/bubbletest/b62100.gif |

Only one in each column can be selected. When you fill out the paper form, it looks something like this:
CODE _1_ _2_ _3_ _2_ (0) (0) (0) (0) (#) (1) (1) (1) (2) (#) (2) (#) (3) (3) (#) (3) (4) (4) (4) (4) (5) (5) (5) (5) (6) (6) (6) (6) (7) (7) (7) (7) (8) (8) (8) (8) (9) (9) (9) (9) |

Thanks for the explanation. Is that for machine readability? Seems a little over the top to both write the answer and check the boxes though.
Reminds me of the old punch cards. |

I've seen it on the answer sheets for standardized tests and similar forms that are intended to be scanned. And you're supposed to use a number 2 pencil, and fill the circle completely, and avoid making stray marks, etc.The written version is for humans, and the filled circles are for computer scanning. It's easy enough to compare each letter/digit to the filled circle below it, but reading a word or multi-digit number by interpreting the filled circles is hard. Reminds me of the old punch cards. Yeah, same basic idea, except instead of punching holes in the card, you make circles with a number 2 pencil. |

and fill the circle completely THAT actually strikes a vague memory. Maybe I've done such a test at some point after all. WOW you guys have really been looking into this. I am want to use these to have the kids be able to practice filling them in for their spring standardized tests. The only thing I would need them to fill in are the boxes above the numbers. Each of those boxes would have either one number or a symbol within them. THANK YOU SOoOOOOO much for showing interest in this. You are helping out impoverished, under privileged third graders to succeed on highly challenging test questions! |
