Importing Quiz Questions with Feedback (from Davis-Edge)

Importing Quiz Questions with Feedback (from Davis-Edge)

I'm working with an instructor to import quiz questions from the publisher Davis Edge. The publisher has MC quiz questions with feedback for all incorrect/correct answers for every chapter. These are download-able as RTFs (no customizing or choice, just download the file).

Is  it possible to import the files? Or how would I need to reformat them to bring the feedback data in with the questions? 

Any insight is very much appreciated!  I'm attaching one of the files for reference.

That is not a format I have seen before.

It should be possible to make an importer for it. There are basically two approaches:

  1. Make a new importer plugin https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Question_formats
  2. Make a stand-alone script which reads the file you have, and outputs a file in Moodle XML (or GIFT) format, which you can then import into Moodle. https://docs.moodle.org/39/en/Moodle_XML_format
