1 | These exercises are OEF exercises and therefore have to be used in an OEF module. |
2 |
|
2 | They have two main parts |
3 | <ul> |
3 | <ul> |
4 | <li> |
4 | <li>the source file, which is created automatically |
5 |
|
5 | using the parameters entered in the Quicktool menu</li> |
6 | <li> |
6 | <li>the data file which contains the language items (i.e. questions or other resources) |
7 |
|
7 | of your exercise and which has to be formatted according to the requirements for |
8 |
|
8 | each exercise type. The data file is created by the user. |
- | 9 | The data file contains one or more "sets" of language items which we will call |
|
- | 10 | "data" from now on (i.e. questions, pieces of text with gaps, words to be matched, etc.). |
|
9 |
|
11 | If there are several data sets in an exercise, these must be separated |
10 |
|
12 | by a punctuation sign : written at the beginning of each "data set". |

36 | Un fichier texte peut être ajouté. |
- | |
37 | D'autres fichiers peuvent être fournis (images, audio, video) |
- | |
38 | et doivent être mis directement dans le module par le compte Modtool. |
- | |
39 | Les noms de ces fichiers sont demandés lors de la création |
- | |
40 | du fichier source. En même temps que le fichier source, l'emplacement |
- | |
41 | exact où vous devez les charger par Modtool vous est indiqué. |

43 | <p> |
- | |
44 | Chaque paquet, en général tiré au hasard, permettra de fabriquer une version |
- | |
45 | de l'exercice lors de l'utilisation dans WIMS. Selon le principe de WIMS, |
- | |
46 | en renouvelant, un nouveau |
- | |
47 | jeu de données est tiré permettant un exercice un peu différent. |
- | |
48 | Il est donc recommandé de mettre beaucoup de paquets de manière à augmenter |
- | |
49 | l'intérêt de l'exercice. |
- | |
50 | <p> |
- | |
51 | Pour la plupart des exercices, il est possible d'utiliser |
- | |
52 | plusieurs jeux de données indépendants à chaque étape |
- | |
53 | et de fixer le nombre d'étapes possibles. |
- | |
54 | <p> |
- | |
55 | Dans ce cas, les jeux de données sont tirés au hasard. |
- | |
56 | C'est à vous de vérifier que vous fournissez suffisament de jeux de données. |
- | |
57 | Cependant, évitez un trop grand nombre de questions à chaque fois ; le renouvellement |
- | |
58 | permet de parcourir toutes les jeux de données et évite la lassitude des grands quizz. |

|
- | 43 | A text file (.txt) and other files (audio (.mp3) and picture (.jpg or .gif)) |
|
- | 44 | can be added to an exercise (for example to provide a reading text or an audio recording |
|
- | 45 | to be listened to...). These files can either be integrated into the exercise via the |
|
- | 46 | Quicktool menu or can be deposited directly into the user's Modtool account. |
|
- | 47 | The names of these files must be specified in the Quicktool menu when the source file |
|
- | 48 | is being created. You will be asked to indicate the name of the module you wish to |
|
- | 49 | transfer them to in your Modtool account. |
|
- | 50 | Videos can also be embedded in your exercise by providing the URL of the video in the |
|
- | 51 | Quicktool menu. |
|
- | 52 | If you wish to include a different piece of text, audio recording or a picture in each |
|
- | 53 | data set (i.e. have several of these in within a whole exercise) the format of |
|
- | 54 | the data file changes slightly. See the "Preferences for a data set" section in the help |
|
- | 55 | files for each exercise type for the format to follow. |
|
- | 56 | <p> |
|
- | 57 | WIMS will randomly select a data set from all the data sets provided when the |
|
- | 58 | learner clicks on the "renew" button, therefore each exercise suggested will |
|
- | 59 | be slighlty different from the previous one. |
|
- | 60 | When using this random function it is recommended to create as many data sets |
|
- | 61 | as possible in a data file so as to make the exercise interesting and challenging |
|
- | 62 | for the learner. |
|
- | 63 | <p> |
|
- | 64 | In most exercise types several independent data sets can be used to create a series |
|
- | 65 | of exercises presented in a certain number of steps which is specified by the maker |
|
- | 66 | of the exercise in the Quicktool menu. |
|
- | 67 | <p> |
|
- | 68 | In this case, the data sets are selected randomly from all the data sets in the data file. |
|
- | 69 | You have to make sure that you have provided a sufficient number of data sets |
|
- | 70 | for the exercise to be interesting. |
|
- | 71 | When configuring the number of steps in an exercise, it is best not to include |
|
- | 72 | too many data sets in each step, as the learner may become tired and demotivated |
|
- | 73 | if the exercise is too long. Because of the random function in WIMS the learner |
|
- | 74 | will probably encounter most, if not all the data sets in an exercise. |
