While it is possible for publishers and test bank authors to use the free version of Respondus (Respondus LE) to create test banks in Respondus format, we strongly recommend that the standard version of Respondus be used. The free version of Respondus doesn’t include numerous tasks (eg., inserting images, equation editor, importing, etc.) and doesn’t allow the author to see how the final materials will look when published to a course management system. In addition, the full version of Respondus has a “platform-neutral personality” that is specifically designed for creating publisher test banks. For instance, the platform-neutral personality prevents test bank authors from selecting question types and options that are not supported by each of the leading course management systems (Blackboard, eCollege, WebCT).
