QTI developments
Update on specification development APIP Preview services Portable custom interactions
QTI developments around the Globe The Netherlands Germany France South Korea USA
4
What does Question and Test Interoperability 2.1 do?
Defines question items Defines tests Describes items and tests (metadata) Defines a package for transport of items, tests and
metadata Defines results and stats
5
Accessible Portable Item Protocol (APIP)
• Provides detailed item rendering instructions for particular needs and preferences (sight, sound etc.)
• Requires Personal Needs & Preferences file to select appropriate rendering
• Status: Candidate Final (i.e. no demonstrated interoperability yet)
• Added to QTI, but doesn't alter it• Likely many profiles (entry, core, and one for each
community)
6
QTI/APIP services
ReSTful Uses Odata protocol
Broadly: using AtomPub for shifting data Came from Microsoft, now an OASIS spec
Services Package transport Item/Test preview Test registration/PnP transport
Examples: GET POST PUT DELETE
apip/packaging/v1/Package(packageId) → CP zip GET apip/preview/v1/
Package(packageId)/PNP(pnpId)/item(itemId) → rendered item in HTML, using someone's preferences
7
Portable customInteraction
Issue: the moment you use a customInteraction, is the moment you lose interoperability
Solution: Ship (javaScript) code with the item Define javaScript API
