Abstract

The contribution deals with the use of automatic generation of parameterized tasks and the inclusion of automatically generated data files as useful feature of generator. This functionality of the generator is used, for example, in tasks of statistical data analysis. The contribution shows usage when generating a descriptive statistics tasks. The basic principles of preparation of statistical data in both sample and population files are described. Methods of integrating these data into the generated task for different output formats are also explained. Selected group of tasks illustrating the outputs of the application of the described methods are presented. The use of a generator for building a Question bank in LMS Moodle is shown as well as the preparation of writing tests. At the same time, various data files storage options and subsequent use with regard to their lifetime are discussed. In the following, a new solution for the implementation of the automatic generator of parameterized tasks in cloud is introduced. This approach will allow the involvement of more users of the automatic generator.
