Adding an Answer Option Set

An “Answer Option Set” is a list of possible predefined answers to a question. Each answer option is assigned a score rating. Examples: (Yes, No), (Yes, No, Partially), (Very Good, Good, Medium, Poor, Very Poor), etc. Here is how to create an “Answer Option Set”.

To add an Answer Option Set:

1. Open or create a new question (ref. chapter above)
2. Click the […] button at the end of the “Answer Option Set” field
3. Select an existing answer option set in the top grid. A Preview of the answer options is displayed in the grid below.
4. If the none of the existing answer option sets meet the requirement for the question you can create a new one by clicking the [Create new Answer set] button on the far left-hand side of the top menu bar in the “Select Answer Option set” dialog.
5. Enter a name for your answer option set:
6. Click Save.
7. Click New in the answer option grid menu bar.
8. Enter the answer option text. Which will be on of the actual answer options for this set.
9. Enter a score value for your question. Any value from 0 % - 100% score is valid. If an answer option is marked with 100% score value, selecting this answer in the assessment will give max score to the question. Max score to the question equals to the full questions weight.
10. If you want to add additional information to the answer option, this can be placed in the Answer definition field.
11. Click Save and Close.
12. If your answer options are not “Graded” (colour and grade letter) as shown in image in step 4, this is due to missing “Answer grade levels”. Next chapter will explain how to configure them.
