Free-Recall-List

pcllab-free-recall-list is a more updated plugin for free recall tasks in terms of visuals and function. It contains an automatic scoring function, where the parameter word_file can be set to a file that contains all correct answers, and the parameter exact_response determines if the answer needs to be an exact match to be given credit.
