Find the correct question type

The settings available vary between the different question types, but the settings and logic behind the various question types are the same. Clicking the question text gives four options in the right-hand menu:

• Marks
• Main illustration
• PDF panel
• Labels

These are general options available to all question types. Clicking the interaction area (the candidate response area) displays the options available to the specific question type in the right-hand menu.

1. Choose a question type:

• Multipe choice (single correct answer)
• Multiple response (multiple correct answers)
• Text entry
• Numeric entry
• Math Entry
• Inline choice
• True/false
• Matching/pairing
• Composite (not recommended)
• Drag and drop (there are issues with this question type and we do not recommend using this)
• Hotspot (use with caution)
• Graphic Gap Match
• Inline Gap Match
• Graphic Text Entry

2. You can also choose to add "Document" first to provide candidates with practical information. "Document" can for instance include information about recommended time used per question, examination support material, etc.

NOTE: Graders do not have access to the question type "Document" while they grade, unless they download/print out the entire question set from the test. Important information such as weighting of questions or how the exam should be answered, should therefore be written in the question text, or in the grading instructions (mark scheme), not in "Document".
