Essay questions

The essay question shall be a free response text area where students can enter larger blocks of text. But in the question module I have three textareas, one for the Question name, one for the Question text and one for the general feedback. There is no textarea for the student answer. I have tried the short answer question but the textarea in this questions type is too small for my need.

How can I get a question where the student´s answer can be 5-10 sentences?

Look more closely on the Help and Docs on this question type.
The essay question is graded manually by the teacher when the student has filled the quiz.
Try it by setting one essay quesiton in a quiz as a teacher and using your student role fill the essay question.
Go back as a teacher and grade your answer as a student...

Pierre,

The problem is solved. The essay question does not appear in the Swedish version of Moodle. When I changed to the English version it did work properly.
