Rubis

For who?

Rubis is meant for:

  • Teachers, trainers, educational engineers

  • Universities and schools, training centers, corporate universities,...

For what?

Rubis enables one to design online multimedia interactive exercises:

  • Multiple-choice question (MCQ), Unique choice question (UCQ), textual or graphic,

  • Matching exercises,

  • Jumble words,

  • Pairing,

  • Fill-in-the-gaps,

  • Short answer or numerical questions...

Each activity can be played in two modes: auto-learning and self-assessment.

What interests?

  • Easily create exercise collections with no HTML knowledge, by following a writing guide,

  • Adapt the activities to the learners needs by contents recombination, without rewriting nor copy-pasting,

  • Recombine the quizzes in various exercise collections,

  • Configure the quiz running mode (self-assessment or auto-learning),

  • Create contents stored in a durable format and make their indexation easier with their XML structure,

  • Homogenize the activities ergonomics with the automated layout of the documents: pre-defined skins for each type of publication.

Truc & astuce

Rubis is compatible with the publishing chains Opale and Topaze:

  • an Opale content fragment can be used to complete the given information to the learner;

  • quizzes created with Opale or Topaze can be used in a Rubis exercises collection.

How does it work?

Thanks to a specific writing guide, Rubis enables one to design a succession of various exercises.

Each quiz contains an Instruction or a Wording and the possibility to give additional explanations from the course.

Quizzes are assembled in an activity for:

  • Auto-Learning: learners make every exercise, access the solutions gradually, they can also read the offered additional explanations and redo the exercise.

  • Self-Assessment: the learners make all the exercises and might have access to the results at the end.

The exercises collections are then generated, with a simple click, after configuring their running mode: timed, double-try, the type of grading, etc.

Thus they can be shared on the web or a learning platform (thanks to SCORM packaging).

Truc & astuceSkin

Rubis' Prism skin is based on the Aurora skin of Opale. The adaptation effort is reduced, by obtaining a consistent chart between the Opale modules and the Rubis exercise collections.
