Long Answer Quiz

Long Answer Quiz

Number of replies: 6

I have an instructor who really likes to give weekly quiz questions that require the student to submit a long answer in their own words. <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

I have tried to work with the assignment module with a setting of online text but this doesn't offer a timer and the student can re-edit thier response.

Does anyone have a suggestion?

Thankx

Have you tried the Essay question type in Moodle 1.6?

Tim has a good idea here. I have doen the sme in my college.

Create a timed quiz and use the 'essay' question type. Works like a charm.

Essay Q can be used as a 3rd party plugin in moodle 1.5.x, I think. Not sure where you get it from. Ask google.

Hi Sue,

Not that the Lesson tool already has an essay question in Moodle 1.5.3. and a timer on the lesson is an option too.
