For history of changes see
https://github.com/marcusgreen/moodle-qtype_gapfill/blob/master/changelog.md
A very easy to use Cloze question type that supports drag/drop answers that work on mobile devices and the mobile app.
Teachers can define the question with square braces to define the missing words. For example The [cat] sat on the [mat].
Alternative delimiting characters can be defined during question edit for example The #cat# sat on the #mat# can be valid.
If the dropdown or dragdrop options are set in the question edit form, it can display a shuffled selection of correct and
wrong answers. These can then can be selected via dropddropdown lists or javascript powered drag and drop functionality.
