Building Feedback

From MoodleDocs


After setting a new Feedback you design it by adding questions. Select the type of question from the drop down list in the top left corner then click the Add question to activity button.

Standard options

The following apply to all or most question types.

Position

This number controls the order of the questions. You can also rearrange questions by clicking the position up and down arrows.

Required

These questions are required to be answered and will prompt the user if they are left unaswered. These questions are highlighted with a red star for users, and have a yellow exclamation point beside them when editing Feedback questions.


Available question types

Captcha

An test to make sure a real person is filling in the form and not an automatic spamming program of some sort. Asks a person to write out some distorted text which is displayed on screen.


Multiple choice - multiple answers

This will give you a series of options with a checkbox next to each one. The respondent can check as many as they want and there is currently no way to specify a limit to how many they can choose which is lower than the total.

Multiple choice - single answer allowed (dropdownlist)

This will give you a dropdown list from which only one answer can be selected
