Searched and failed to find an answer to this:

  1. I created a Cloze in Question Bank (below, if it works here)

{:SHORTANSWER:%100%Shang~*#Wrong answer. The correct answer is "Shang".}, {:SHORTANSWER:%100%Zhou~*#Wrong answer. The correct answer is "Zhou".} / Warring States, {:SHORTANSWER:%100%Qin~*#Wrong answer. The correct answer is "Qin".},

{:SHORTANSWER:%100%Han~*#Wrong answer. The correct answer is "Han".}, P.O.D., {:SHORTANSWER:%100%Sui~*#Wrong answer. The correct answer is "Sui".}, {:SHORTANSWER:%100%Tang~*#Wrong answer. The correct answer is "Tang".},

{:SHORTANSWER:%100%Song~*#Wrong answer. The correct answer is "Song".}, {:SHORTANSWER:%100%Yuan~*#Wrong answer. The correct answer is "Yuan".}, {:SHORTANSWER:%100%Ming~*#Wrong answer. The correct answer is "Ming".}, {:SHORTANSWER:%100%Qing~*#Wrong answer. The correct answer is "Qing".},

ROC, PRC.

  1. then exported it to MoodleXML
  2. then imported it into a Lesson.

The result: "1 questions with unsupported question types were not imported"

Clay,

You cannot import Cloze questions into a Lesson simply because the Cloze question type does not exist in the Lesson activity (unlike Quiz).

Joseph

EDIT.- I've added this important information to the Documentation here.

Thanks, Joseph.

I did a workaround and just made quiz activity instead of a Lessson.

But does that mean there's no possible multiple blank-fill exercise in Lessons? Short answer seems to be only one blank-fill per question, right?

Thanks again leende

Any chance to fix this in a future version? It's a great problem for all my colleagues...

Atanas "Any chance to fix this in a future version?"

No chance at all. Please note that the so-called "Cloze question" if in fact a collection of sub-questions (of various types). This works in the Quiz activity but it cannot work in the Lesson activity, which by design only accepts one question per page (not several questions or sub-questions).

OK, I've already said this but I'll say it again. On the surface Lesson and Quiz are similar in that both activities are based on asking the student to answer a certain number of questions. However, they are designed as totally un-related and different types of activities, hence the questions and problems that arise whenever moodle users want to use some question types strictly meant for Quiz in a Lesson.

Joseph

PS.- Maybe your colleagues should use the Quiz activity rather than Lesson?
