This question type provides students with a field to insert a numerical response, possibly with units, that is graded by comparing against various model answers, possibly with tolerances. From the student’s perspective, a numerical question looks just like a short-answer question. The difference is that numerical answers are allowed to have an accepted error. This allows a fixed range of answers to be evaluated as one answer. OPTIONAL: Consider using the General Feedback area when creating Numerical questions to provide students with calculations on how to attain the correct answer. OPTIONAL: You can include several underscores (_________________) within the Question text to use this question type as a fill in the blank, with only one blank allowed.
 Answer X: This represents one value that the student must input. Enter the number for the option in the field provided.
OPTIONAL: For values that may be written in multiple formats, you can include each as a possible answer unless you explicitly inform students how to answer. Error: This is the accepted error for this answer. This is the range above or below the answer that Moodle will accept as a match.
Grade: If this is the correct answer then then change the Grade to 100%. OPTIONAL: You can include multiple possible answers with varying levels of correctness. So that if a student enters one of those instead they can secure a partial grade. Feedback: (Optional) If included, if the student inputs a value within this accepted error of the answer to answer the question then the feedback you have included here will be displayed to them once they submit their answers for grading. |
