Multiple Choice (Book Page object)

Scope

• Book Page content object > Multiple Choice object

Purpose

Example of a Multiple Choice question, used within a Quiz

This object is used to insert an answer block for a 'multiple choice' style question into a Quiz or Book Page content object.

Note that this object does not contain the question - this needs to be entered separately, typically via a Text object on the same page.

Use

Use the Answer properties to specify up to 8 possible answers to be presented to the user, and then select the Answer Correct checkbox for each answer that is correct. The user must select all 'correct' answers to pass (and will be awarded the number of points specified in the Points property).

By default, if there are multiple correct answers square checkboxes are used as the selection buttons, and if there is only one correct answer, circular 'radio buttons' are used. This can give users too much of a clue as to how many correct answers there are, so you can use the Force Multiple Choice property to force the use of checkboxes regardless of the number of correct answers.
