QuestionTeX for Moodle
The QuestionTeX plugin for Moodle enables the import of questions written in QuestionTeX directly into the Moodle LMS. Export from Moodle to QuestionTeX is also possible.
Installation instructions
Prerequisites
- For the convenient installation through the Moodle admin interface, the web server needs write permissions to the $moodle_root/question/format directory.
- For manual installation (or if your Moodle version is < 2.5), copy the folder "qtex" to $moodle_root/question/format. Then, in the admin panel purge the Plugin list on Site Administration -> Plugins -> Caching -> Configuration
- A configured and enabled TeX Notation filter is required to render the formulae. See https://docs.moodle.org/2x/pl/TeX_notation_filter for instructions.
- Handling of images requires PHP's zip extension to be enabled
Installation
Following the standard procedure for installing add-ons,
- download the zip archive from https://moodle.org/plugins/view.php?plugin=qformat_qtex.
- go to the administration panel in Site Administration -> Plugins -> Install add-ons
- select the plugin type 'Question import/export format' and upload the zip archive
The QuestionTeX format should now appear in question export/import dialogues.
Hints:
- In order to improve vertical alignment of images, add the following css to your theme: .texrender {border:0px;vertical-align:middle;}
- If you are looking for some QuestionTeX examples to test the import, check out the qtex/examples folder in the archive.
This plugin has been written in the LEMUREN project at ETH Zurich.
