Adding Questions to Listening Passages
Once your listening passages are in place, you can begin adding questions. Here's how to add questions in 'ProQuiz':
Accessing the Questions Section
Select the quiz you want to edit, for example, 'Listening Test 20 GT' section, click the 'Questions' tab.
Choose a passage to add questions to by using the 'Choose Passage' dropdown menu.
Adding a New Question
Click the '+ Add Question' button.
In the 'Add Question' menu, select the 'Input Type' for your question from the dropdown menu, which includes:
Fill-up (for questions where an answer must be typed)
Radio (for single-choice questions)
Select (for dropdown selection questions)
Checkbox (for multiple-choice questions)
Adding Fill-up Questions
Fill-up questions require participants to type answers into blanks, which is ideal for testing precise recall or understanding of the passage.
Fill-up Questions
To add Fill-up questions, where a user inputs the answer, use curly brackets
{answer}for a single answer or{answer1|answer2}for multiple possible answers.Each fill-up enclosed in brackets is considered one question.
Radio Questions
Radio questions present multiple-choice options with only one correct answer.
Add a question and list all options, marking the correct one.
Multiple radio questions can be included on a single page.
Select Questions
Select questions allow users to choose from dropdown options.
Determine the input type (e.g., 'A (Capital Alphabets)') and the number of options (e.g., 7).
Within the question content, place the correct answer in curly brackets, like
{A}or{B}. In the student preview, brackets will be replaced with dropdown menus where the bracket letter represents the correct answer.
Checkbox Questions
Checkbox questions offer several answers where more than one can be correct.
Each correct answer counts as a single question for scoring purposes.
If multiple answers are correct, the question's value equals the number of correct answers.
Add Explanations: For each question, you can provide an explanation to give feedback or clarify the correct answer upon review.
Preview and Finish: Utilise the preview feature to see how the test will appear to users. Make adjustments as needed and save your changes.
