Moodle plugins directory: OU multiple response

Hello Im trying to grade a Spreadsheet and a Text Editor. Im having trouble because i used the short answer question type and it only compares 2 given text equaly, I can´t find the way to use the answers field as points for the total answer.You seemed to have achieved that goal right?

If you are saying that you want the students to type
"A spreadsheet and a text editor"
and you want to give them two marks or one mark or none, then what you need is the Pattern match question type which is another of our question types on this site.
Documentation is here http://labspace.open.ac.uk/mod/oucontent/view.php?id=470268&section=5.3.1

You will need something like
match_mow(spreadsheet text_editor) for 2 marks
match_mow(spreadsheet|[text_editor]) for 1 mark

will there be a version for 2.5 anytime soon

I think it's done but only in the last few days. It shouldn't be long before Tim makes it available.

Hi there, I am not sure if I should post this here but I am looking for a slightly different question type and reasoned that you would know if it exists: I have an instructor who wants multiple answers possible but to limit the allowed number of answers (to something higher than 1). This would basically mean the students would not be penalized by 1/n for each incorrect answer. Does such a thing exist?
Cheers,
Dave

A better place to ask would be in the quiz forum: https://moodle.org/mod/forum/view.php?id=737

Thanks Tim, I have done that...

Hello,
I would like to export OU multiple response questions to GIFT or Microsoft Word table format, to make checking their content easier. I used the export function from the Moodle administration menu, but the GIFT file does not contain the questions (only their names). I get a similar result when exporting to Word. Is this a known issue, or might I have done something wrong? Also, would it be possible to convert automatically a category of OU multiple response type questions to the standard multiple choice type?
Greetings from Bucharest,

The only export format available for this question type is Moodle XML format.

I see. Thank you, Tim!

Yes. We are at the OU. It works.

Did you install the plugin properly? In particular, have you been to the Site admininistration -> Notifactions page?

Could we have a version for 3.3 and / or 3.4 please? We are thinking upgrading but many of our plug-ins only work up to 3.1! Thanks!

The same to us

At the moment, the default method for showing the correct answers to the learner after they have completed the question, is to list all the correct answers as a single list each item separated with a comma. This is fine if the answers are short (e.g. 1 or 2 words), but if the answers are longer (and in particular if they contain commas) then the end result is very confusing. Would it be possible to improve this excellent plugin by displaying the correct answers as a simple bulleted list instead or give us the choice of display options when we create the question? Thanks

This plugin inherits that behaviour from the standard Moodle question type. So, this is really MDL-43174.
