Demonstration: True or False type item
A True-or-False item provides only two options in response to a question.
My quiz, Cinéquiz-français, contains a True-or-False item entitled Cet obscur objet du désir. I click on this item in order to modify it.
Under the Content tab, I wrote the title of this item, and then the question text in which I ask the respondents whether it is true or false that Luis Buñuel gave the role of Conchita to two different actresses who alternately assumed the role throughout the film Cet obscur objet du désir.
The two choices, True and False, are already written by default. You can modify the options (Yes or No, for example). I indicated the correct answer by clicking on the appropriate radio button. In the right-hand column, I wrote feedback messages and added, for respondents who want to learn more, a link to Wikipedia.
Now let’s move to the Add-ons tab. I did not use the two Add-on fields for this item, but I could have given clues, help, the source, etc.
In the section, Media in the header, I inserted a photo of the producer Luis Buñuel next to a poster for the film Cet obscur objet du désir.
Now, let’s see the Parameters tab. In addition to the parameters that are common to all of the question types (Weighting, Automatically start media and Display correct answer), this item type offers a parameter that lets you choose the type of label that will appear to the left of each element in the published quiz. For this item, I chose letters of the alphabet.
I will now preview how this item will appear and function in the published quiz. Under the image that I added as complementary information, and the question statement, are the options, True and False. I click on True, then on Submit. The message Correct answer appears in green, followed by a green circle to the left of the answer I chose. The positive feedback message that I wrote under the Content tab appears below.
And there you have the True-or-False item!
