The query server is adapted to:Generate, based on the parameters, query sequence sets, each set having at least one query section;Transmit a query sequence set as a logical unit to a client system;Receive responses of a user to the query sequence set from the client system; andProcess the received responses to produce an output.The host may transmit information defining at least one of the sections to the client system, which are presented to the user for receipt of responses. The responses are then transmitted to the query server. The query server processes the received information and produces an output based on the processed information. The query server may transmit information defining one of the sections to the client system, including designated queries and context information, and define information representative of a state of the section before transmission. The terminal presents inquiries to the user defined by the section, receives responses to the queries, and transmits an answer that includes information relating to the responses and a modified state to the query server. The query server, in this case, processes the responses to determine an information content and to determine a change between the defined state and the modified state.Field of SearchResponse of plural examinees communicated to monitor or recorder by electrical signalsQUESTION OR PROBLEM ELICITING RESPONSE COMPUTER LOGIC, OPERATION, OR PROGRAMMING INSTRUCTION Cathode ray screen display included in examining means Electrical means for recording examinee's response Education or instruction REMOTE DATA ACCESSING COMPUTER-TO-COMPUTER SESSION/CONNECTION ESTABLISHING COMPUTER-TO-COMPUTER DATA ROUTING | |
