Switch to slide no 2 Welcome to spoken tutorial. In the coming few minutes, we'll talk about how to conduct a Choice on the moodle site. Choices are small, one-question surveys. You can use a choice to get rapid feedback from your students about any topic you wish, as long as it’s only one question long.
Switch to Terminal Click the “Turn editing on” button. Select Choice from the “Add an activity” drop-down menu. On the “Adding a new choice” page, give the choice a descriptive name. Enter the question text in the choice text area. Choose whether to limit the number of responses allowed. If this is enabled, each response can be assigned a different limit. When the limit is reached, nobody else will be able to select the response. If limiting the number of responses is disabled, then any number of participants can select each of the responses. Enter responses in each choice field. If you require more than 5 fields, click the “Add 3 fields to form” button. You can fill in any number of choice fields—if you leave some blank, they will not be displayed. If you want the question to be available for a limited time, click the “Restrict answering to this time period” checkbox and set the opening and closing dates and times for the choice. Select the miscellaneous options: Display mode - Choose whether the responses are displayed horizontally or vertically. Publish results - Choose the option for revealing the results of the choice to students. Privacy of results - Depending upon your “Publish results” setting, you can choose whether to

display students’ names with their response in the results. Allow choice to be updated - If you want to allow students to change their minds after they’ve answered, set this to Yes. Otherwise, students will be able to answer the question only once. Show column for unanswered - This option determines whether students will see the number of people who haven’t answered the question when they see the choice results. Click the “Save changes” button. Once you’ve created the choice, it will be available to students after the opening time, if you’ve set one. After students have answered the choice, you can see their responses via the “View xx responses” link at the top right of the choice page. Unlike the students’ view of the results, irrespective of whether results are published anonymously, you’ll see a column for each response with the student’s picture and name. Selected responses may be deleted if you wish. You may like to delete any test response you made. Results may be downloaded in a choice of three formats by clicking the appropriate button at the bottom of the choice responses page.
