Using simplified entry of questions, it is possible to mass insert questions of the type :r for choosing exactly one correct answer, type :c for choosing at least one correct answer, type :a for a free text answer and type :h for a free text answer with formatting in the answer.
First, you need to have a set of questions (see "How do I set up a question set?").
Simplified entry of questions is located:
A modal window will appear where you need to select which type of questions will be inserted in bulk. Depending on the selected type of questions, it is possible to preset explicit points (which will take precedence over implicit points entered in the answer sheet description), a word or character counter, the size of the field for student answers, etc. A detailed explanation of each item is displayed after clicking on the "Help" option .
At any time, the "Upload Demo" operation will display a pattern of how questions of a given type should be entered. For questions of type :r, :c:
- the first paragraph/line means the question entry;
- the next paragraphs/lines represent the input of the answers;
- the line/paragraph with the correct answer is marked with an asterisk;
- individual questions are separated by a blank line.
1 Only certain types of questions can be entered simply and en masse.
2 Sample example questions will help you understand how simplified embedding works.
1 The simplified format of the questions is easy to read.
1 The system will take care of the conversion to the question set format.
For questions of type :a, :h:
- the first paragraph/line means the question entry;
- individual questions are separated by a blank line.
After inserting the questions at the end of the set, you still need to save them. New inserted questions can be viewed via the option "display in a new look" and possibly further edited via the option "definition of a set of test questions".
