The eqexam Package Dated: 2019-01-31 Author: D. P. Story eqExam is a LaTeX package for writing exams, tests, quizzes, homework assignments, etc. It is a stand alone package, yet is tightly integrated with the AcroTeX eDucation Bundle (AeB). Highlights of this package are as follows: 1. Can create exams (tests, quizzes, homework assignments) for paper, with points in the left or right margins (or both), totals for each page optionally shown at the bottom corner of each page. Questions can be objective, fill-in, true false, or multiple choice. 2. Solutions can optionally be included in the source file, and by changing options, can be displayed (for an answer key), in a couple of different ways. A solutions only document can also be generated. 3. Can create multi-part exams, as I often do for final exams, these multiple exams are meant to be graded individually. 4. The one thing that distinguishes this package from the other exam package is its support for PDF, and this is where AeB comes in. When you have AeB installed, and you select any of several options (pdf, links, online or email), a variety of things can happen. For example, in the case of the online or email options, white space for solutions is converted into multi-line text field, spaces to fill in answers are converted to text fields,multiple choice questions are converted into radio button fields, etc. When the email option is used, a "Submit" button is automatically created at the top of the first page of the test. The student can take the test online (perhaps in a testing lab) then submit responses to the instructor. The email that is generated to the instructor attaches the FDF file of form data, so the instructor gets a copy of all responses. She/He can then open the file and view the responses of the student. Get the latest AeB (AcroTeX eDucation Bundle, web,exerquiz,etc) 5. A major option, fortextbook, is designed to support (U.S.) textbook authors. Documentation for this option is found in the doc/fortextbook folder.
