# moodle-qformat_answersselect

This import format plugin takes a Moodle XML file and imports all regular multichoice questions changing them into 'Random select answers' questions. This enables users to export some of their multichoice questions using the normal Moodle XML export format and import them back with the 'Random select answers' format. The additionnal benefit of this process is that they now have 2 copies of each question, one using the regular grading scheme and one using the 'Random select answers' grading scheme.

This plugin should go into the question/format/answersselect Moodle installation directory. Login as admin to complete plugin installation. Then select this format Random select answers format during question bank import.

This work is based on the crossxml qformat plugin made by Daniel Thies 2018 dethies@gmail.com and licensed under the included GPL 3
