Blueprints are a great way for you to tag questions inside Practique in order . You can then use these tags to produce detailed reports and categorisation of exam data, such as your curriculum and domains of competence.
...
- The first thing you may want to do is to set up your Master Blueprint. This will contain all of the categories of information that you want to be able to tag from assign when assigning to tagging individual questions. The blueprinting section can be reached right directly from the dashboard.
- Clicking Manage blueprints → Edit Master Blueprint will take you to the page where you can begin to setup your Dimensions and Categories.
Since Practique 4.1.x
You can specify that Dimension is Applicable to Item, Candidate, Examiner or any combination of thosethese. You can see for example that Year of Study in above screenshot is applicable for both Items and Candidates. This allows you to create Dimensions which you can use for grouping or filtering Candidates and Examiners. See Managing Candidates and Examiners for more details about this feature. - Categories are grouped by dimensions, in the example shown above we have entered Domains of Competence and given it a type of selected its type to Discrete (which defines that this will be a list). Clicking Edit on this dimension once it has been created will take you to the next page where you can add your individual blueprint categories that should come under you wish to sit within that dimension.
- After creating a few dimensions and categories within them you should end up with an ordered set of tags from which to begin attaching to the which can be added to questions you will create later. The system will automatically place your tags into alphanumeric ordering order and this ordering order will carry through onto any reports that are produced that you choose to display information from these blueprints.
