Complex questionnaire for students

Complex questionnaire for students

Hello!

I hope someone can help me.

I'm using Moodle 2.5.2 on a course that requires students to fill in a questionnaire.

The problem is that the questionnaire involves a series of 20 questions, each question has  5 columns. Each column reqires a "yes / no" response and a comment.

(See attached file)

I've tried the questionnaire addon but can't get it to work. 

I've considered using Excel (or Google docs addon) but can't seem to make any progress with it.

Is there another method that I'm missing?

Thanks in advance

Tim

Have you had a look at the Cloze type question? It's a very useful quiz question that seems to fit a lot of possibilities.

I've created for our Construction group a tools and materials quiz where the students have to identify a tool from a photo and name what it is used for. They have 9 items to identify with 9 uses and it all counts as one question worth 18 marks.

I could see your individual questions as a multiple choice part for the yes/no and a short answer for the comment. You'll have to look at manual grading the short answers, if it's capable of being graded, because Moodle will mark them wrong unless the student gets the answer word for word. Having a multiple choice as the first part will combine the yes/no columns so I'm assuming they answer yes or they answer no, not both.

Let me know if you need any other help with it, only too glad to offer it.

Hi John

Thanks for the response and your help - very useful.

You're right, it's a yes or no response which I guess is the easy bit. The trick now is to try and get the comment box on the same line as the yes / no choice. I can't seem to find the syntax for doing that.

I suppose I could put the comment on the next line but it make the questionnaire very cumbersome.

I'll look at manual grading first though.
