I want students to look at a sentence, infer ideas and enter the ideas as words into a 4x4 table. The words are not supplied in the sentence. Does Quizport handle this type of question, or do you know a quiz format that does?

You could probably do it with JCloze if you layout the blanks in an html <TABLE>.

Could you give us an example of a question you have in mind?

thanks

Hi Rosemary

Here are a number of exercises with JCloze using tables.

H2O2 → H2O + O2

Carré magique 1

Nationality Words

Pronunciation of the -ed ending - 1

All of them could be included in Moodle and here's one that is : Simple Arithmetic - open to visitors.

If you need help to work out how to do it, just ask.

Cheers,

Glenys

Dear Rosemary,

in case you are not sure how to enter a table in JCloze, here's how:

Easy method:
Use a HTML editor such as Amaya (free) or DreamWeaver($$) to create the table, then switch the display into "code" mode and copy and paste the html code into JCloze.

Slightly techy method:
Input the html code for a table yourself. It looks like this:

<table width="600"><tbody>
<tr><th>Connector</th><th>Doer</th><th>Action</th><th>Done-to</th></tr>
<tr><td>GAP_1</td><td>GAP_2</td><td>GAP_3</td><td>GAP_4</td></tr>
</tbody></table>

  • The top line starts the table
  • the 2nd line is a row of table heading cells, "th"
  • the 3rd line is a row of table data cells, "td"
  • the last line finishes the table

If you want more rows of gaps, copy and paste the 3rd line.

The above table will look like this in the browser.

Connector Doer Action Done-to
gap-1 gap-2 gap-3 gap-4

Hope that helps!
Gordon

Hi Rosemary,

In the attached file you will find a copy of the table I used for making the Nationality words exercise that you said (in a private email) was closest to what you want. You can modify it as you wish.

Here is a step-by-step tutorial with screen-shots, Create a table in JCloze.

Cheers,
Glenys
