Shenandoah University’s School of Pharmacy Speeds Test Authoring and Content Harvesting with Questionmark Live

Shenandoah University’s Bernard J. Dunn School of Pharmacy needed a faster, more flexible way for faculty to author and manage online assessment content. The school had been using Questionmark’s assessment management system with Authoring Manager and Word templates, but piloted Questionmark’s browser-based tool, Questionmark Live, to simplify item creation and enable off‑campus work by subject‑matter experts.

By adopting Questionmark Live, faculty and the webmaster quickly built organized question banks and streamlined importing and workflow: seven faculty produced more than 100 new questions before finals, Assistant Professor Kelly Masters authored 30 of 53 final exam items, and eight courses ran a total of 620 online exams. Questionmark’s solution eliminated software installs, increased faculty involvement, and materially sped up test authoring and content harvesting for Shenandoah University.
