Item Templates
Knowledge and competence tests or surveys consist of items (exercises, questions) that may have different characteristics.These characteristics are defined by Item Templates. They describe the way an item is presented.
On the basis of a certain template an item is filled with text and/or multimedia elements, the Item Content. This process is called item authoring.
The main constituents of a particular item are its underlying Item Template and its specific Item Content.

Famous quotes containing the word item:
“All of women’s aspirations—whether for education, work, or any form of self-determination—ultimately rest on their ability to decide whether and when to bear children. For this reason, reproductive freedom has always been the most popular item in each of the successive feminist agendas—and the most heavily assaulted target of each backlash.”
—Susan Faludi (20th century)
