Overview

Questionlab gives instructional designers the collaborative authoring tools and development workflow they need to create and manage question items throughout their entire life-cycle.  More than just question item management and categorization, Questionlab delivers the workflow and robust question authoring environment required for instructional design teams to develop high quality question items.

Roles

Questionlab’s role-based approach enables instructional design teams to easily include key technical and content experts in the question development process.  Initial question authoring can be done by the content experts and then further refined by instructional designers so that the learning objectives are met without any loss of question context or integrity.  The workflow can be extended further to include review by the original authors.

Genealogy

During every aspect of the authoring and reviewing process, author and reviewer notes can be attached to each version of a question item creating a detailed genealogy of the question changes and development process.  This can provide critical insight into how changes and improvements to a question have effected learner understanding and knowledge retention.

Questionlab’s versioning and categorization tools not only allow simplified change management, but an easy way to update all versions of a question within every Testcraft assessment it may exist.

Organizations invest extraordinary amounts of time and resources developing learning content, but when key instructional designers are lost, a significant repository of content development knowledge and history can go with them.  No longer.

Leverage History

The combination of role-based collaboration and workflow, item genealogy, flexible categorization and reporting not only allow new design teams to quickly understand existing content, but addresses an often ignored but critical aspect of learning development, maintaining investment in the process.  With Questionlab, you go beyond content organization and life-cycle maintenance.  You retain instructional design expertise.
