Now that you've started to build an advanced assessment, you may want to add a Sort List question.
 |
The Sort List question type allows students to arrange items into their correct order by dragging the items from the Source area to the Target area. Students can drag, highlight, and move items between/within the lists using the arrows.
Example:
 |
Build the Question
If you are creating a new item, select the + Create button on the assessment builder, title the item, then select the Add New plus sign to add a question.
If you are adding to an existing item, simply select the Add New plus sign (as shown above) to add a question to the item.
Next, select the Classify, Match & Order category from the options on the left, then choose Rating.
Compose Question
Type the stem of the question into this field.
Add List Items
Add the items you want the students to "list" here. These can be words, sentences, paragraphs, and even images. If you want to use images, just select the image button from the toolbar that appears when you place your cursor in one of the fields.
Set Correct Answers and Scoring
Under the Set correct answers(s) section, drag and drop the list items into their correct order.
First, determine how many points you'd like the question to be worth:
Next, determine the Scoring Type:
Exact Match: the entire question must be answered correctly to receive the point(s).
In this example, students will need to place all four responses correctly in order to earn the full point.
Partial Match per Response: each item is scored independently, and each is worth the number of points indicated in the point(s) field.
In this example, each item in the correct position will earn 1 point, making the question worth a total of 4 points.
Partial Match: similar to partial match per response, each item is scored independently, but the point value indicated in the point(s) field is evenly split among the items.
In this example. each item in the correct position will earn 0.25 points, making the question worth a total of 1 point.
Student Preview
It's highly recommended to Preview the question before adding it to the assessment. This displays the question as the students will see it and also verifies that the answers and scoring work as expected.
Step 1: Select the Preview button to go into Preview mode
Step 2: Answer the question with the correct answers, including alternates.
Show Answers: Checking this box will display the correct answers.
Step 3: Verify that the auto-score correctly calculates the point value (in this example, 1/1)
