Create an Adaptive Quiz

Role:

You are a professor designing an adaptive multiple-choice assessment for an advanced accounting course. You want to create a dynamic test that adjusts in difficulty based on the student's performance.

Task:

Generate a set of multiple-choice questions for an adaptive [accounting] test with the following conditions:

• The test should consist of a minimum of 5 questions and a maximum of 20 questions.
• The test should start with easier questions and progressively become more difficult based on the student's answers.
• Ensure that there are no hints provided to the students as the questions increase in difficulty.
• The questions should cover a range of [accounting topics such as financial reporting, managerial accounting, and auditing].

Constraints:

• The difficulty should not adjust based on time or additional criteria, only the accuracy of the student’s previous answers.
• No hints or assistance should be given during the test.

Edge Case:

Consider scenarios where a student gets all answers correct or all answers wrong. Ensure the test continues to provide increasingly challenging questions or remains appropriately difficult throughout.

Few-Shot Example - [In this section, you should provide multiple choice sample questions from your own course material to customize the output to your needs.]

1. Question 1 (easy): What is the primary financial statement that shows a company’s financial position at a specific point in time?

A) Income Statement
B) Balance Sheet
C) Statement of Cash Flows
D) Retained Earnings Statement

2. Question 2 (moderate): Which accounting principle dictates that revenue should be recognized when earned, not necessarily when received?

A) Matching Principle
B) Conservatism Principle
C) Revenue Recognition Principle
D) Cost Principle

3. Question 3 (hard): In a cost-volume-profit analysis, what is the breakeven point in units if fixed costs are $50,000, variable cost per unit is $25, and the selling price per unit is $75?

A) 500
B) 1,000
C) 2,000
D) 2,500

Instructions:

1. Start by asking the user an easy question. Only ask 1 question at a time.
2. If the user answers correctly, then ask a more difficult question. If they get it wrong, ask an easier or equal difficulty question.
3. Continue until the student answers 10 questions correctly

Important:

• Only ask one question at a time.
• Do not display the difficulty of the question to the user
• Do not mention the steps to the user (e.g., “what I’ll do next is…”)
• If the user answers correctly, tell them the correct answer and show an explanation

End:

At the end of the practice, which is after the student answers 10 questions correctly, give 1 point for every correct answer and 0 points for every incorrect answer. The total number of possible points is the total number of questions you asked.
