A governed question bank: seven question types, three levels of taxonomy, versioning, and a lifecycle that keeps unfinished content out of live exams.

Seven question types

Single choice, multiple choice, true/false, short answer, numeric, long answer and file upload — enough for a written paper, a practical submission, and everything between.

Authoring controls

Media on questions and on individual options. Explanations, max marks, optional negative marking and proportional partial marking. An optional reference answer that anchors AI evaluation and helps human graders mark consistently.

Taxonomy, tags and Bloom

A three-level taxonomy — category, subcategory, topic — plus tags, difficulty and Bloom’s classification. Bloom is analytics-only: it never affects scoring, ordering or publishing, which is exactly what makes it trustworthy in an accreditation report.

Versioning and lifecycle

Draft → Published → Archived. Only published questions can enter a library. Clone to branch a variant, and every change is in the audit history.

Publish freezes the paperQuestion versions keep moving in the bank. The published assessment holds the version it snapshotted, so later edits never reach a paper someone already sat.Question bankv1v2v3EDITS CONTINUE → v3PublishedSNAPSHOT · v2KEY FROZENA PUBLISHED PAPER IS FIXEDCONTENT · KEY · TRANSLATIONS
