Support for ordering question type
Here is the plugin page. Here is where development happens. Here is the MoodleDocs page. Here is an other documentation with examples.
There is no answer-specific feedback.
The options are:
-
<layouttype>
with possible valuesHORIZONTAL
andVERTICAL
. Choose whether to display the items vertically or horizontally. For this we could reuse the keys for multiple choice questions. -
<selecttype>
with possible valuesALL
,RANDOM
, andCONTIGUOUS
. Choose whether to display all the items or a subset of the items. -
<selectcount>
with possible values0
(means "all") or a positive integer (limited to the number of answers provided). Size of subset of items offered to the student. This seems relevant only if<selecttype>
is notALL
. -
<gradingtype>
with possible values-
ALL_OR_NOTHING
If all items are in the correct position, then full marks are awarded. Otherwise, the score is zero -
ABSOLUTE_POSITION
An item is considered correct if it is in the same position as in the correct answer. The highest possible score for the question is the same as the number of items displayed to the student. -
RELATIVE_TO_CORRECT
An item is considered correct if it is in the same position as in the correct answer. Correct items receive a score equal to the number of items displayed minus one. Incorrect items receive a score equal to the number of items displayed minus one and minus the distance of the item from its correct position. Thus, if n items are displayed to the student, the number of marks available for each item is (n - 1), and the highest mark available for the question is n x (n - 1), which is the same as (n² - n). -
RELATIVE_NEXT_EXCLUDE_LAST
An item is considered correct if it is followed by the same item as it is in the correct answer. The item in the last position is not checked. Thus, the highest possible score for the question is one less than the number of items displayed to the student. -
RELATIVE_NEXT_INCLUDE_LAST
An item is considered correct if it is followed by the same item as it is in the correct answer. This includes the last item which must have no item following it. Thus, the highest possible score for the question is the same as the number of items displayed to the student. -
RELATIVE_ONE_PREVIOUS_AND_NEXT
An item is considered correct if both the previous and next items are the same as they are in the correct answer. The first item should have no previous item, and the last item should have no next item. Thus, there are two possible points for each item, and the highest possible score for the question is twice the number of items displayed to the student. -
RELATIVE_ALL_PREVIOUS_AND_NEXT
An item is considered correct if it is preceded by all the same items as it is in the correct answer, and it is followed by all the same items as it is in the correct answer. The order of the previous items does not matter, and nor does the order of the following items. Thus, if n items are displayed to the student, the number of marks available for each item is (n - 1), and the highest mark available for the question is n x (n - 1), which is the same as (n² - n). -
LONGEST_ORDERED_SUBSET
The grade is the number of items in the longest ordered subset of items. The highest possible grade is the same as the number of items displayed. A subset must have at least two items. Subsets do not need to start at the first item (but they can) and they do not need to be contiguous (but they can be). Where there are multiple subsets of equal length, items in the subset that is found first, when searching from left to right, will be displayed as correct. Other items will be marked as incorrect. -
LONGEST_CONTIGUOUS_SUBSET
The grade is the number of items in the longest contiguous subset of items. The highest possible grade is the same as the number of items displayed. A subset must have at least two items. Subsets do not need to start at the first item (but they can) and they MUST BE CONTIGUOUS. Where there are multiple subsets of equal length, items in the subset that is found first, when searching from left to right, will be displayed as correct. Other items will be marked as incorrect.
