New question type: Musical Scales

Number of replies: 10

Hello,

I have contributed a new question type that may be helpful for music theory instruction: Musical Scales. The respondent is given a key and tonic, and is prompted to enter a scale.

A question bank is included, including all major and minor scales, with and without a key signature. Answers are entered in a graphical user interface.

Many thanks to Anthony Borrow for his help with the contribution process.

Hello Tim,

To create a new question, click "Turn Editing On" on a course home page. Then, in one of the dropdown menus that says "Add an Activity", click on "Quiz". Fill out the required fields and click "Save and Display".

This will create a quiz and show you the editing page where you can add questions. On this page, there is a dropdown beside "Create new question" - this is where you would select "Scale" and then configure the musical scale question.

Further instructions on creating quizzes in Moodle are available here.

Hope this helps,
Eric
