EasyTestMaker is going to become a tool that I use regularly. As of now, I have been creating my teacher made tests on Microsoft Word. This has worked out fine for me, but I often find myself struggling with the formatting. For some reason, I always mess up the formatting on one question, and then the whole document gets messed up. With EasyTestMaker, the formatting is taken care of. I love it! Now I can spend more time during my prep periods preparing, correcting, or making other assessments. It is free for the basic subscription, or you can upgrade for $14.95 a year.

EasyTestMaker is a test generator that allows a teacher to create an assessment very easily and quickly. The format of the tool is very user friendly, and the directions are very simple.


1. Here is how it works:

2. Go to Eastytestmaker.com

3. Register- it is free

4. Log in with your user name and password

5. Click on Create New Test

6. Name your test; choose your font and font size. Then

click “continue” to get a toolbar with a list of types of

questions you can add to your test. For an

example, I clicked on multiple choice, and the

screen looks like this:


7. Type in your question, and up to 8 answer choices.

Then save questions, and you can choose to add

more multiple choice, or change to other types of questions

(ex: true/false, fill in the blank, open ended response).

8. . When you are done adding questions, you click on preview/ print to see more

options. Here you can upload to Microsoft Word. I like this

option, but it is only available to the paid subscribers.

9. Your test saves, and you can go back and make changes,

or additions later if needed.
