Building Feedback
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
Dropdownlist (rated)
This is visually indistinguishable from the option above. Not sure what the difference is, so please fill it in here if you know. Matt Gibson 04:27, 19 March 2008 (CDT)
Label
Similarly to a standard Moodle label, this allows you to add abritrary text between questions allowing for extra explanation or to divide the Feedback into sections.
Numeric answer (added in Moodle 1.7)
Picture
This question type allows you make a question where users must choose from a range of images as their answer. For example: "Which of these flags is known as the Union Jack?". You write your question and CTRL-Click to choose the images you want. Currently, there seems to be only the option to use flags that are provided with the module. Can other images be used?

Multiple choice - single answer
This will give you a series of radio buttons, which starts on 'Not selected' and then has your options afterwards. Only one can be chosen and 'Not selected' is a valid answer if the question is not set to 'required'.
