Creating a Multiple Answer Question

Return to tutorial list

To add questions, log on to Blackboard, select your course and click on Control Panel.

In the Control Panel screen, locate Assessment.  The method for adding questions is the same for Tests, Surveys, and the Pool Manager.

See the tutorial Creating a Question Pool so you can create your questions using this tool and then use them over and over again.  Just a reminder to set the Creation Settings also since there may be questions that you want to add links to. To add a Multiple Answer question, select Multiple Answer from the Add question pull down menu and click on the Go button.

Enter your statement for the question.

Select the appropriate options. You can determine the orientation for the answer.

Select the number of answers you want to enter and click on the correct check box for all the answers that are correct. For example, you may enter four answers, but only two will be correct.

Feedback is your opportunity to reinforce correct responses or to give corrective feedback. Enter Correct Response Feedback.

Incorrect Response Feedback:

When you have finished adding text and selecting the correct answer, click on Submit to add the question.

A new screen appears in the Pool Manager and your question has now been created.
