Multi-Select Question

September 9, 2014

  • Multi-Select questions are perfect for questions with more than one correct response, or All-That-Apply type questions.
  • Ensure your learners know they can select multiple answers by including “Select all that apply.” in your Question Text.
  • Instead of manually typing out numbers before each option, you can enable automatic Enumeration.
  • Keep distractors plausible and all relatively the same length
  • Avoid using NOT questions (e.g. Which of the following is NOT an attribute of emotional intelligence?) as they make the question more confusing for the learner.
  • The default style for multiple-choice questions is Vertical, but if your answers are shorter, consider using Horizontal to fill up whitespace.
