Objective (auto-graded)

One fixed correct answer. Fast and consistent to grade automatically — the backbone of most online quizzes and standardized tests.

Multiple Choice

A multiple choice question presents a stem (the question) and a fixed list of options, exactly one of which is correct. The wrong options are called distractors and are written to look plausible.

Multiple Response

A multiple response question has two or more correct options and asks you to select every one of them. Because partial credit is common, each checkbox is effectively its own true/false decision.

True/False

A true/false question gives one statement and asks you to judge whether it is correct. Yes/no and agree/disagree items are the same binary format.

Fill in the Blank

A fill-in-the-blank question removes a key word, term or value from a sentence and asks you to type it in. Grading usually matches your text against an accepted-answer list.

Cloze

A cloze question is a single passage containing multiple embedded gaps. Each gap can be a dropdown, a short typed answer, or a number, so one cloze item bundles several sub-questions.

Drop-down

A drop-down question presents a sentence or passage with a menu of choices at each blank. It is a constrained gap-fill: instead of typing, you pick the right option from a list.

Drag the Words

A drag-the-words question shows a passage with blanks and a word bank. You drag each word into the blank where it belongs — a draggable form of cloze gap-fill.

Matching

A matching question gives two lists and asks you to connect each item in one column to its partner in the other — for example terms to definitions or countries to capitals.

Ordering

An ordering question gives a set of shuffled items and asks you to arrange them in the correct sequence — the steps of a process, events in time, or items by size.

Sorting

A sorting question provides category buckets and a set of items, and asks you to place each item in the group it belongs to based on a shared property.

Drag and Drop

A drag-and-drop question asks you to move draggable items — words, objects, or markers — onto predefined drop targets. A common variant drops labels or markers directly onto an image.

Hotspot

A hotspot question shows an image and asks you to click the correct region as your answer. The graded area is an invisible "hot" zone on the picture.

Hottext

A hottext question makes certain words or phrases inside a passage selectable, and asks you to click the one(s) that answer the prompt — such as the error in a sentence.

Labeling

A labeling question gives a diagram and a set of text labels, and asks you to place each label on the correct part of the image.

Numeric

A numeric question asks you to type a number — usually the result of a calculation. Grading may accept an exact value, a tolerance range, or require specific units.

Math Response

A math response question expects a mathematical expression — a fraction, equation, or formula — entered through an equation editor rather than a plain number box.

Graphing

A graphing question asks you to place points or draw a line or curve on a coordinate plane. The platform reads the plotted geometry and grades it automatically.

Jumbled Sentence

A jumbled sentence question scrambles a sentence and asks you to reconstruct it, usually by selecting the right word or phrase from a dropdown in each slot.

Subjective (open response)

Free-form answers with more than one acceptable response, graded against a rubric or by automated short-answer scoring.

Short Answer

A short answer question asks for a brief written response — usually one to three sentences. Unlike fill-in-the-blank, there is more than one acceptable wording, so it is graded by rubric or by automated short-answer scoring.

Draw

A draw question asks you to answer by sketching on a canvas — a diagram, circuit, or graph drawn freehand rather than selected or typed.
