Drag and Drop into Image random order of answers.

Drag and Drop into Image random order of answers.

Basically, I want to setup a drag and drop into image question type. But what I want to achieve is the drop text can be dropped into any one of the 6 drop zones and be accepted as an answer. The order of the answers do not matter.

Is there an existing plugin in which I can achieve this?

I tried "drag and drop markers" but two problems occurs.

  1. The drop texts are duplicated for use of multiple drop zones for same text (using unlimited number of drop text use).

  2. The outline of dropzones are not shown as in drag and drop image types.

Is there a way I can somehow customize the drag and drop question type to achieve this for particular question types?

Any responses are kindly appreciated.

Hi Sandip,

You can easily do this using the gapfill question type with it set to drag and drop. Download from here: https://moodle.org/plugins/qtype_gapfill

Documentation here: https://docs.moodle.org/33/en/Gapfill_question_type



The design of the question example uses a table for spacing the drop zones. With each dropzone set for a possible answer of [ans1|ans2|ans3|ans4|ans5|ans6], you can then drop the correct answers in any of the dropzones, and also include some distractors, if needed.

Hello AL RACHELS,

       Thank you for pointing me to the right direction. I was aware the gapfill question type but unaware of its possibilities. I will dive in further.  Thank you again for your reply.
