A widget is a zip/wdgt file that is downloaded into iBooks (available on iOS) or EPUBs (available on several platforms). An author of a book can use SwiftAssess widgets to include assessments for purposes of Section Review or End of Chapter Review.

SwiftAssess Widgets are published against practice tests, not exams, since practice tests are meant as Chapter/Lesson Review exercises and contain only auto graded questions.

Include EPUBs in Assessments

EPBUs can be included in assessments. With EPUBs the text can be reflowable and there is support for audio/video content.
