Text - Single Answer

Use a Text - Single Answer panel for questions that have specific word or phrase answers that users should type in.

To add a Text - Single Answer question, go to Resources > Maintain LMS Assessments and search for the quiz you will be editing. Select the quiz and click the Edit button in the toolbar. In the quiz editing screen, select a question group and click the Add Question button from the toolbar.

On the Add Question screen, select Text - Single Answer and click the Add Panel button.

Type the question in the Question text box using the pop-up rich text tools to format the text, add graphics and media, etc. Type up to ten possible correct answers in the Possible Answers text boxes. If the acceptable answers fields are left empty, then the text box will behave as a simple input box and the question will not be scored. This is useful for unscored reflection questions.

Click the Feedback drop-down in the top toolbar and choose By Question or None, depending on whether you wish to provide the user instant feedback after they answer the question or not.

If you wish to edit the default feedback phrases and points value for this question, double click on the feedback phrases at the bottom of the screen.

Click the Question Properties button in the top toolbar to add the button label text, set feedback options, and designate a destination URL (if different from the next panel).

Select a topic in the Add to Topic drop-down in the top toolbar to add this panel to an existing topic, or type a new topic name into the New Topic field.
