Freehand Drawing is a question type for Moodle which allows examinees to draw their solution in a quiz
Example
- You musf first give the question a name. Choose one name that will make it easy to identify inside the Question bank.
- Write the question text, stating clearly what the student must draw.
- In this case we will ask about Magellan's circumnavigation arount the Earth.
- The background image is the canvas where the student will draw his answer. In this case we will use an image taken from the wikipedia article on Magellan.
- Your correct answer is actually your drawing!
- It is extremely important that you choose appropiate values for the size of the pencil used for drawing and the threshold for th correct answer. In this example we are using a very large pencil size and a very benign threshold, as this is only an example.
- Your correct answer is actually your drawing!
- If you will allow multiple tries, you must set the penalty and write the hint(s).
- If you are using Tags for your questions, you can choose the correspoding tags here.
What the student sees
- The student is shown the background image
- The student will draw his/her answer
How the question is marked
- The marking shows;
- the points for the question and the percentace of agreement between the teacher's respone and the student's response.
- blue color: the correct answer you draw
- green color: the parts of the student's answer that matches the correct answer
- red color: the parts of the student's answer that do not match the correct answer
- You must check that your question works as intended. If not, you can:
- Change the size of the pencil: If you make it it smaller the student will need to produce a finer drawing
- Change the threshold for correct answer, taking into account the nature of the question and the skill level of your students.
- Check that the feedback will give the student the extra information that the student would need to better answer this question in another try.
