Multiple Choice Question

Multiple choice (M/C) questions present a statement or question with a list of possible answers, in which learners must choose the best possible answer. Multiple choice questions differ from multi-select questions in that learners select one answer for each multiple-choice question.

If you create a multiple choice question that has more than one possible solution, you can weight the answer according to the correctness of each possible answer.

For example, if two answer choices out of five options are accepted as correct, both can be weighted 100% and the other three options can be weighted at 0%. If all five answer choices are accepted as correct but some are more correct than others, each can be weighted in ascending order with the most correct answers weighted more than the least correct answers.

 

Create Multiple-Choice Questions:

  • In the Question Library, from the New button, click Multiple Choice Question (MC).
  • In the General area, enter your multiple-choice question details.
  • In the Options area, do the following:
    • To set how your options must be enumerated, select an option from the Enumeration drop-down list.
    • Select how you want your question to display.
  • Enter a choice in each Value field and the weight you want to assign the answer (you can set different weights if some solutions are more correct than others).
  • To include additional answers, click Add Option.
  • To verify your question, click Preview and Save.
