Option Response Problems

Option Response questions are similar to radio response questions, but instead of selecting one foil by clicking it's corresponding button, you select an option from the foil's drop-down box.

Option response questions are usually used as a collection of true and false foils or as a matching question.

There are two ways to create your option response question. The first way is called simple option response and the second way is option response with concept groups. Simple option response is simply a collection of foils with designated corresponding correct options. Option response with concept groups allows more specification for testing the conceptual knowledge of your students. You can group foils into different categories, or concept groups and later analyze the data from your students submissions to see if knowledge is lacking in a particular concept. For example, the statement "a is less than b" and the statement "b is greater than a" represent the same concept, but offer variety in the question such that students have to help each other instead of merely share their common answers.
