Item Bank

Home > Core Modules > Item Bank

Module Overview

EDAP Item Bank is a curriculum-based question and paper generation system that organizes assessment items according to class, subject, chapter, topic, SLOs, question type, and difficulty level. Teachers can reuse approved questions or generate new ones with AI, then build balanced examination papers according to the required paper pattern and marks distribution. This creates a structured assessment workflow from question creation and organization to paper generation and performance analysis.
