Computer Aided Assessment (CAA) has been deployed in higher education to administer examinations in which the responses are electronically recorded, assessed, or both. CAA makes possible a detailed analysis of test results with minimal effort. It employed the descriptive and applied methods of research. A standardized research survey questionnaire was used. The study found out that 50.86% of the responses were computer aided, 43.43% were paper and pencil, 4.5% were board work and 1.4% was others. 45.14 of the responses were multiple choice, 22.29% were true or false, 17.14% were essay 14.86% were matching type and .57% were others. Test papers were physically distributed by the professors to students. HTML and CSS were used for GUI while PHP and MySQL for storing data. The Multiple Choice Test (MCT) software was evaluated usable. The study concludes that the students prefer computer-aided test as the delivery method of assessment. Moreover, students prefer multiple choice type of test especially when the assessment period is limited. The existing testing administration is manual. The combination of Hypertext Mark-up Language (HTML), Cascading Style Sheet (CSS), and Hypertext Pre-processor (PHP) and MySQL relational database management system is deemed effective in the development of a Multiple Choice Test Randomizer.

This paper describes a novel computer-aided procedure for generating multiple-choice test items from electronic documents. In addition to employing various Natural Language Processing techniques, including shallow parsing, automatic term extraction, sentence transformation and computing of semantic distance, the system makes use of language resources such as corpora and ontologies. It identifies important concepts in the text and generates questions about these concepts as well as multiple-choice distractors, offering the user the option to post-edit the test items by means of a user-friendly interface. In assisting test developers to produce items in a fast and expedient manner without compromising quality, the tool saves both time and production costs.

Two experiments investigated the information conveyed by intonation from speaker to listener. A multiple-choice test was devised to test the ability of 48 adults to recognize and label intonation when it was separated from all other meaning. Nine intonation contours whose labels were most agreed upon by adults were each matched with two English sentences (one with appropriate and one with inappropriate intonation and semantic content) to make a matching-test for children. The matching-test was tape-recorded and given to children in the first, third, and fifth grades (32 subjects in each grade). The first-grade children matched the intonations with significantly greater agreement than chance; but they agreed upon significantly fewer sentences than either the third or fifth graders. Some intonation contours were matched with significantly greater frequency than others. The performance of the girls was better than that of the boys on an impatient question and a simple command which indicates that there was a significant interaction between sex and intonation.

<p>The purpose of this study was to determine the contribution of logical intelligence and interest in learning to Mathematics achievement. The method used in this study from survey and the study was conducted in SMA Depok municipality. Techniques used in the data collection done by using a questionnaire written test multiple choice test and questionnaire. Analysis of the data in this study using descriptive statistical methods with multiple regression testing.where this research results showed in: there is a significant influence jointly between logical intelligence variables (X1) and interest in learning (X2) on mathematics achievement (Y),which means learners have a good logical <br />intelligence and has been interested in Mathematics will greatly affect the learning achievement in SMA Depok municipality</p>
