Create long answer questions


Long answer (LA) questions require respondents to write detailed answers in response to open-ended questions. You can enable users to respond in multiple sentences, paragraph answers, or mathematical explanations and calculations. Users can also respond in HTML code.

Note: HTML code is sometimes stripped from saved long answer responses if a learner refreshes the page while taking the quiz. As a best practice, encourage users to save a version of their HTML response locally in case they need to refresh the page.

Long answer questions are not auto-graded.

  1. In the Question Library, from the New button, click Long Answer Question (LA).
