‘The Online Question Bank (OQB) is equipped with functions to encourage students’ self-learning, such as storing ‘Multiple-choice questions’ for subjects of different public exams, and has a unique ‘Creating Practice’ function, so that students can make targeted practice assessments in preparing for public exams according to their own learning progress and needs. In addition, the OQB makes a learning report for each comprehensive assessment, which records the students’ scores for each assessment, so they can refer to and reflect on the parts did not know so well when reviewing, to promote students’ independence.’
‘OQB provides multiple-choice questions from HKEAA, which are categorised by topic and level of difficulty. This makes it easier for teachers and students to select different topics in order to clarify concepts.
