There are several ways to add a question to a Lesson. This page will show ways of adding a question when in edit mode.
==Insert question page==
In Moodle 1.7 and later there is now a collapsed view under edit.  Use the Action "Add a page" pulldown to the right and select "Question". 
[[Image:Lesson Tabs Collapsed short-1 7.JPG|thumb|center|500px|Moodle 1.7 Edit in Collapsed]]
 
Or under the Expanded view (previously called "All pages view"), above each existing page you will see a link '''Add a Question Page here,''' similar to below.

This link will insert a question page for you in that spot.  Don't worry you can move it later like any other page.
 
===Importing questions===
It is possible to insert one or more questions from a file by using the [[Import questions]] link in the expanded edit tab.  Between each question the teacher will see an "Import questions" link.  See the "Insert page type" image above.
 
==Select question type==
'''Before you type in any content in a lesson question, you should decide about the [[Lesson question types|type of Lesson question]] you will use.'''  The help button near the top of the screen next to "Question Types" can also help with a quick review. The default type is multiple choice but you may easily switch to another type.
 
:'''Tip:''' When you decide to switch question types after placing in content, you will probably lose the content you entered.

==Elements of question page==
Most lesson question page have the same [[Lesson_question_types#Common_features_of_a_Lesson_Question_page|common formats in the edit mode]]. They have title, content, answers, responses and [[Jumps|jumps]]. Each answer maybe assigned a specific score, depending upon the [[Adding/editing a lesson|lesson settings]] or the simple default method can be used.
 
The content and answer blocks have the [[Page content|HTML toolbar]] available.
 
Remember to click on '''Add a Question Page''' to save your page.
 
==Tips and tricks==
=== How to add a picture as an answer ===
Moodle is little quirky ( for programming reasons) in inserting pictures into answers. 
#Insert your question into the lesson. Remember the page title (important step for bald guys),
##Maybe type in your question,
##Save the question with the Add question button at the bottom, then the "continue" link
#Find the question you just saved,
##Edit the question. Now you will see a place to check "Use Editor" next to each of the answers and responses,
##Check off the boxes you want, There is a help icon which will describe this process,
##Click on redisplay at the bottom. You should see the html editor tool bar above the responces you checked off,
##Insert your picture using the editor,
##Save your work by clicking of add question button at bottom.
 
There is a help icon which will describe this editing tool.
 
===Adding sound to a question page===
*[[MP3_player#Inserting_sounds_into_questions|Here is the best place to look]] - adding sounds to questions. 
*[[Audio in Moodle]] has an overview and tool recommendations
 
== See Also ==
*[[Lesson score]] methods for scoring a lesson
*[[Lesson questions]- Types of questions available in a Lesson.
*[[Effective_quiz_practices]] offers some good advice about designing questions and "security and cheating".
*In version 1.6, it is possible to import questions from the [[Question bank]], a feature of the Quiz module. The teacher first exports questions from the question bank in a GIFT file, then use Import Questions in the expanded edit mode in Lesson.
*[[MP3_player#Inserting_sounds_into_questions|Adding sound to a question]] is written for Quiz but it will work in a Lesson question.
