This screen shot shows how the question text appears in the editor. These are then placed in a table to allow the student to drag into the appropriate category columns.

As of version 1.1, when this happens the background of the duplicated values will be displayed in yellow and a message added to the feedback will say "Credit is partial because you have duplicate answers".īy combining No duplicates mode with the | (or) operator it is possible to create tables with category columns. Correct answers will still be displayed with a green check/tick (as they are actually correct), but marks will only be awarded for the first occurrence of the selection. Make sure you select gapfill mode for this type of question, otherwise you will have confusing draggable prompts appearing.īy checking the No duplicates box in the question editing form, when it comes to marking any duplicates will be discarded. Note the separator is the broken bar character which acts as an OR operator. The syntax of the question fields would be three times. So you could ask "Name the colours of medals awarded in the Olympic Games". This allows a question in the form Name three examples of X.

To make this happen check the "show number of correct responses option" in the hint field under the multiple tries option. This takes the form of red/green background colour and a tick or cross. In interactive mode (set in the question behaviour of the quiz) it is possible to have a question indicate the number of questions that are correct and for this to be displayed for each field.

Which will create a question with two gaps where the answers are cat and mat. The classic example of a question is a question where the text reads.
