Practique has full support for Ebel standard setting, allowing each exam paper to be standard set by a group of invited expert judges. The Ebel matrix can be customised (you need to ask Fry to configure this for you), and difficulty and relevance can be input by each judge, and the Ebel score automatically calculated for each item in the exam. Ebel score histories are kept for each item in the item bank, allowing Ebel scoring trends over different exams and exam papers to be tracked separately in the item bank.
