Abstract: The quizzes allow the tutor to assess the student's knowledge level briefly. However, creating a quiz is a challenging task that requires time and effort. If the tutor wants to create multiple quizzes tailored to the student's needs, the time needed to construct them increases dramatically. Furthermore, a large pool of questions and activities makes creating personalised quizzes more complex. A solution to the above is employing genetic algorithms to quickly and automatically produce personalised quizzes and tests. However, a genetic algorithm uses complex mathematical forms, which tutors of various knowledge domains find difficult to understand. Given this, the paper presents a genetic algorithm that embeds a fuzzy rule-based mechanism in the fitness calculation phase to select the most appropriate questions for each learner and create personalised quizzes more realistically. The presented algorithm aims to describe with linguistic terms the appropriateness of each question rather than obscure mathematics forms. In such a way, estimating the suitability of a quiz question is closer to the human way of thinking and becomes more explainable to tutors. The presented fuzzy genetic algorithm has been performed for creating quizzes for learners of the programming language HTML. The algorithm accepts a pool of questions and the learner's characteristics and needs. It gives as output a report, which includes the questions sorted by their suitability and a recommended quiz that best fits the learner's needs.

A technique for measurement of attitudes
R. Likert
- 01 Jan 1932
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe a technique which has been developed for the measurement of race prejudice, which avoids the following assumptions: (a) that the individual can say, to his own or the investigator's satisfaction, "This is how prejudiced I am," and (b) to the extent that theindividual can accurately assess his degree of antipathy, he will report honestly the findings of such introspection.

“Technique for the Measurement of Attitudes, A”
TL;DR: The instrument to be described here is not, however, indirect in the usual sense of the word; it does not seek responses to items apparently unrelated to the attitudes investigated, and seeks to measure prejudice in a manner less direct than is true of the usual prejudice scale.

TL;DR: C Culling is near optimal for this problem, highly noise tolerant, and the best known a~~roach in some regimes, and some new large deviation bounds on this submartingale enable us to determine the running time of the algorithm.

Fuzzy logic = computing with words
TL;DR: The point of this note is that fuzzy logic plays a pivotal role in CW and vice-versa and, as an approximation, fuzzy logic may be equated to CW.
