Yardstick Itematic is a user-friendly web-based tool where your authors can create hundreds of questions at a time, instead of just one.
Yardstick Itematic helps you build your item bank quickly, effectively, and within budget. Based on the principles of automated item generation (AIG), Yardstick Itematic is a user-friendly web-based tool where your authors can create hundreds of questions at a time, instead of just one.
Yardstick Itematic works by segmenting a question into multiple components based on its grammatical structure. Using a model defined by the user, a list of alternative stem components (e.g., procedures, symptoms, patient characteristics, etc.) become easily interchangeable. In short, this software allows users to quickly construct unique questions, as well as answer options, in a systematic manner that is far more efficient than creating questions one by one.
Bringing together world-class expertise in exam administration, psychometrics, and eLearning instructional design and development with forward-thinking technology to service governments, associations, licensing and certification bodies, and corporations.
Yardstick was listed on the Deloitte Technology Fast 500 for North America in 2014 and has been on Alberta Venture Magazine’s “Fast Growth 50 List” seven times, PROFIT Magazine’s “Canada’s Fastest-Growing Companies” for four consecutive years, and is recognized by Waterstone Human Capital as one of Canada’s 10 Most Admired Corporate Cultures.
