How to create a Lesson using the Multichoice Questions: Type 3 Component?

You can ask multiple questions and give multiple options but only with one possible correct answer for each question. The user can select only one answer per each question

When to use this Component

You can use this component when you want the users select only one answer out of the choices for each question from an answers list. If you want to give multiple questions on a page, and a feedback for each question, this is the right component to use.

How it works

  1. User selects a single answer for each question and clicks the Submit button to submit the answer.

  2. If the user has selected the correct answer, it will be highlighted in green for each question.

  3. If the user has selected any wrong answer, it will be highlighted in red.

  4. A feedback will be displayed at the bottom of each question.

  5. Since the answers are highlighted immediately after you’ve clicked the Submit button, the retry option is not available in this type of questions.
