Chapter 7
To add Questions to a Feedback activity, follow the steps shown below:
1. Select the Feedback activity.
2. From the left-hand menu, select Settings | Feedback administration |
Questions. If you have just created and saved the activity, this page will
already be displayed.
3. Select the Edit questions tab.
4. From the drop-down list that is labeled Add question to activity, select the
type of question that you want to add.
Specific types of questions and their settings are covered
in the next section. The rest of this procedure covers
settings that are common to almost all question types.
5. If you mark a question as Required, the user must answer it in order to
submit the feedback. The question will have a red asterisk next to it.
6. The Question field contains the text of the question. Unlike a quiz question, a
feedback question can consist of only text.
7. The Label field contains a label that only Teachers will see, when viewing the
results of the feedback. The most important reason for the Label field is that
if export the results of the feedback to an Excel worksheet, then the Label is
exported with the results. This allows you to match the feedback results with
a short label in your database.
8. The Position field determines the order of the question, when you first add
it to the feedback page. After the question has been added, you can override
this number and move the question to any position on the page.
9. Depend item and Depend value can be used to make the appearance of a
question dependent upon the answer to a previous question. For example,
you might first ask someone, "Do you have a Twitter account?" If they
answer Yes, you might display a question like, "How often do you tweet?" If
they answer No, you would hide that subsequent question.
From the Depend item drop-down list, select the question whose answer will
determine if this question appears. Then, in the Depend value field, enter the
answer that is needed to make this question appear.
10. For a discussion of the fields that apply to only one type of question, see the
section on Question types.
11. Save the question.
