Help with MCQ question
by Sam Tsiu - Wednesday, 2 September 2015, 5:12 PM
 

I'm to build an assessment which requires a question component I'm not sure how to build with Adapt.

It's a 4-options MCQ of single answer. However, all 4 options are selectable. Different option has different point. For example, Option A - 4 points, Option B - 3 points, Option c - 2 points and Option d - 1 point.

I don't know how to build this with the contrib-MCQ question component. or it it possible with currently available components?

Could you please help me?

Thanks

Hi Sam,

I am not that experienced yet, but I was trying the same kind of questioning setup you describe, and compaired to other systems, I see that you can only put a weight to the whole question and not to each single answer.

Would be great to have such an option in the future. It gives you much more flexibility.

In fact, if I look at the code, they might be able to tweak the following:

"_questionWeight": 1,

"_canShowModelAnswer": false,

"_shouldDisplayAttempts": false,

"_isRandom": true,

"_selectable": 4,

"title": "To scroll or not to scroll?",

"displayTitle": "To scroll or not to scroll?",

"body": "Can you identify a few of the benefits that a vertical scrolling

approach offers over the traditional back and next approach?",

"instruction": "Choose one or more options and select Submit.",

"_items": [

{

"text": "Scrolling is common place on the web and therefore

familiar to the learner",

"_shouldBeSelected": true

"_answerWeight": 1,

},

{

"text": "Scrolling reduces the need for unnecessary navigation

as pages can be as long (or as short) as they need to be",

"_shouldBeSelected": true

"_answerWeight": 1,

},

John's right, don't think this is possible in the framework as things stand.

If you want to submit a feature request to have this added you can do so here.
