A number of pre-defined Cloze Tests can be selected from the
ClozeMaker Menu options. The tenth button
in the top toolbar is for
creating a test by deleting every nth word, which is the first option in
the ClozeMaker Menu.

Selecting this option the user is first presented with the Word Deletion Dialog which allows the user to select the number of words to be deleted. The default is every 7th word, but this can be made higher by selecting from the dropdown list:

The test appears in a maximized window, the text remains in its own window but is not visible to the student.

The lower toolbar is now enabled for doing the test. The
deleted words must be selected in any order, and the arrow buttons provide a
simple way to navigate between the deleted words. The word is typed
into the edit control, and (if entered correctly) is entered into the text by
clicking the Answer Button
in the Test
Toolbar. In Figure 7 below the third word has been input and placed
in the text by clicking the Answer Button, and the
fourth word has been entered into the edit control:
