To add a question to your lesson you need to go to the All-Pages View or Expanded View of your lesson.  Above each existing page you will see a link '''Add a Question Page here.'''

This link will insert a question page for you in that spot.  Don't worry you can move it later like any other page.
 
'''Before you type in any information, you should decide about the kind of question which will end your question page.''' The default type is mutiple choice.  You can easily change that to any of the following: True/ False, Short Answer, Numerical, Matching or Essay question. To find out more about question types available in the lesson, click on the name of the question (in 1.4) or on the help button near the top of the screen next to "Question Types".

If you decide to choose a multiple choice question, you will need to decide if you want your question to be multianswer as well.  If you decide to choose a Short Answer question, you will have to decide if the answer will be case sensitive or not. 
 
TIP: It is a good idea to put the correct answers first in multiple choice. Remember that Lesson will randomize the presentation of the answers.  And that also means "all of the above" won't always work, besides that is really a multi choice question <grin>. 
 
Next, you decide about the name of your page (Page title) and the page contents.  Standard practice is to ask your question, so it the last thing entered on the content page.
Depending on the question type you chose at the beginning, the layout of the answers and responses will vary.
 
After writing your answers and responses (if any) to a student's choice, you will have to specify the jumps for each answer.  To learn more about jumps click here.  In version 1.5.x you can give a score for each answer.
 
Remember to click on '''Add a Question Page''' to save your page.
 
 
== 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.

*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.
