Info
NOTE:
Scoring notes are instructions about scoring; displayed for the OEQS user during the evaluation process.

Scoring textual items has three available techniques. When clicking the Points button, a drop-down menu appears for selecting the scoring method: 

Image Added

  • Direct - when direct scoring is selected, a Max. Score field is displayed where the maximum point value has to be determined; OEQS users can choose to give any number in the range of zero and the provided score value.
  • Keywords - selecting the Keywords method prompts the Set Keywords button to be displayed. Clicking the button opens the Keywords Setup pop-up where any word can be set with fixed value, thus when typed in, the system recognizes and calculates a recommended score for the response (from the sum of the point value of the matching words), which is displayed on the OEQS page by highlighting the relevant words in the response text and also listing them with their values and the recommended score.

    Image Added
Note
IMPORTANT: Setting up keywords should be regarded as a guideline in scoring - it is recommended that the answers be double-checked and approved by the OEQS users.


Tip
TIP:
If multiple spelling can be considered acceptable, or typos might be disregarded, alternative spelling can be listed within the same keyword field, separated by comma(s). In such case, the system will calcuate the recommended score for either one of the listed words.
  • Questionnaire - Evaluation completed by answering a set of questions. The questionnaire can be created on the Special Section part, which then can be selected via the drop-down menus displayed when the Questionnaire method is selected.
