My languages for My quizzes

The Netquiz Web user can work with the application's interface in either French or English. By default, quizzes can also be created in French or English. It is, however, possible to modify the texts comprising the framework of a quiz so that the quiz will appear in other language. If you wish the texts forming the framework of a quiz to be in another language, simply enter the translation of the messages into the text input fields on the language form.

When preparing a quiz, one of the parameters allows you to choose the language that you want from among those saved in the library (see).

NOTE: The current version of Netquiz Web only allows languages that are written from left to right.

To display the list of languages:
At the top of the Netquiz Web page, click on Library, then, in the menu on the left beneath the title Library, click on My languages.

The columns in the list are as follows:
Code: A unique number given by Netquiz Web when the language was saved.

Title: Name of language.

Note: Comment related to the language when it was added or modified. The content of this field is not visible in the published quiz. This is used to write notes to help you manage the content or for collaboration with a colleague. It can help identify an item that you wish to note (such as something to check, complete, check copyrights for, etc.).

Modification date: Date and time that the language was last saved.

See Using lists

Using the list of languages, you can add a new language or modify, duplicate, export, print or delete language forms.

To add a new language:

  1. Click on Add a new language. 

  2. Fill in the text input fields.

  3. Click on the Save button to save the information or click on Cancel if you do not wish to save the language.

Messages that you enter into the General messages section will appear by default in the published quiz as feedback for a correct answer, incorrect answer or an incomplete answer, when the respondent clicks of the Submit button. If you want to personalize the default feedback for an item, use the command Modify these values for this item only under the Parameters tab for the item, in the section Language for preview or publication of this quiz.

NOTE: Another way to add a new language is to duplicate an existing language, and then enter the translation into each of the text input fields. This approach can be simpler because you can see the content of all of the input fields and you only need to replace the content with the content in the new language.

To modify a language form:

  1. From the list of languages, select the language you wish to modify by clicking on the corresponding button.

  2. Move the cursor over the gear icon, above and to the left of the list of languages, and select Modify in the drop-down menu.

  3. Enter the changes in the appropriate input fields.

  4. Click on Save to save the changes or on Cancel if you do not want to save the changes.

Duplicate language forms:

  1. Select the language you want to duplicate from the list of languages by clicking on the corresponding button.

  2. Move the cursor over the gear icon, above and to the left of the list of languages, and select Duplicate in the drop-down menu.

The duplicated language will be added to the list, preceded asterisk.

NOTE: When a language's form is displayed, you can move the cursor over the gear icon in the top right of the form and click on Duplicate.

To export a language’s form:

  1. Select the language you wish to export from the list of languages by clicking on the corresponding button.

  2. Move the cursor over the gear icon, above and to the left of the list of languages, and select Export XML in the drop-down menu.
    The language form that you select will be converted into XML format.

  3. You can retrieve the XML file using the usual method for your computer.

NOTE: When a language's form is displayed, you can move the cursor over the gear icon in the top right of the form and click on Export XML.

Print a language form:

  1. Select the language that you wish to print from the list of languages by clicking on the corresponding button.

  2. Move the cursor over the gear icon, above and to the left of the list of languages, and select Print in the drop-down menu.

NOTE: When a language form is displayed, you can move the cursor over the gear icon in the top right of the form and click on Print.

Move a language form to the recycle bin:

  1. Select the language form that you wish to delete from the list of languages by clicking on the corresponding button.

  2. Move the cursor over the gear icon, above and to the left of the list of languages, and select Move to recycle bin in the drop-down menu.

NOTE: Language forms in the recycle bin are not permanently deleted, but simply placed in the project's recycle bin. By using the Recycle bin menu, you can either retrieve or delete them permanently.
