Hi Stephen,

Our "communication problem" has led me to browse the Moodle Documentation Wiki again. I now see clearly that the documentation was not clear enough and I have revised it accordingly.

The Regular Expression Short-Answer question type page now states:

IMPORTANT NOTE.-

  • The RegExp Short Answer question described in this documentation page is a 3rd-party plugin, which allows you to create questions for the Quiz activity. It is different from the "Use regular expressions" option in the Lesson module.
  • The documentation for the "Use regular expressions" option in the Lesson module is to be found at: Short answer analysis.

If you are indeed using the "Use regular expressions" option in the Lesson module, you need the documentation at: Short answer analysis.

I'm sorry for the inconvenience this lack of clarity inducedblush and thankful to you that I've been able to make things better in the Moodle Docs Wiki.smile I should probably revise the page at Short answer analysis as it is getting quite old.

Now we are starting on a better foundation, please read the relevant documentation and do not hesitate to ask further questions if need be.

ATB

Joseph

Hi Stephen,

I'm afraid we still have a communication problem.sad

You posted this to the Lesson module, but in your posts you mention the REGEXP plugin, which, as I tried to explain in my previous post, is meant to be used for the Quiz module's question bank, and has nothing to do whatsoever with the Lesson module.

Please answer this question. Do you want to use:

a) in the Lesson module, the regular expression option of the shortanswer question or...

b) in the Quiz module, the REGEXP plugin to create your own REGEXP questions to be used in a Quiz?
