Evaluating Students with Quizzes, Choices, and Feedback<br />

Choices<br />

<strong>Moodle</strong>'s Choice is the simplest type of activity. In a Choice activity, you create one<br />

question and specify a choice of responses. You can use a Choice to:<br />

• Take a quick poll<br />

• Ask students to choose sides in a debate<br />

• Confirm the students' understanding of an agreement<br />

• Gather consent<br />

• Allow students to choose a subject for an essay or project<br />

Before we look at how to accomplish this, let's look at the Choice activity from the<br />

student's point of view, and then explore the settings available to the Teacher when<br />

creating a Choice.<br />

Student's point of view<br />

From the student's point of view, a choice activity looks like this:<br />

Notice a few things about this Choice activity:<br />

• The student can see how many other students have chosen a response.<br />

• There is a limit on the number of students who can choose each response.<br />

• The student can remove their choice and submit again.<br />
