Thanks for sharing this Rowan. It looks interesting.
My own Guide to Writing Objective Tests compliments it since it deals with
the development of (paper-based) selected response questions.
I hope it's OK to share it with the community.

> A publication from the SURF project "Active Learning, Transparent

> 2004).

> The ALTB projects primary aim was to provide a methodology for design

> This book reflects the experience in design and development of a little

> at four universities: Wageningen University (WU), Vrije Universiteit
> (VU), Delft University of Technology (TUDelft) and Fontys University of
> Applied Science (Fontys) and converts this experience in a methodology.
> Practical problems in the earlier projects led to literature searches,
> formation of theory and application of methodological results in
> subsequent projects. Thus, design is the core of this book. The
> methodology presented in this book is the result of a design process and
> the methodology is a methodology for the design and development of
> digital closed questions.

> The SURF ALTB project was carried out in 2005 and 2006.
