• Step 1: Log in to your WordPress Dashboard.
• Step 2: Locate the LearnPress menu in your dashboard’s sidebar.

As mentioned in the quiz section, you can create 4 types of questions with LearnPress including:

• True Or False Question
• Multi Choice Question
• Single Choice Question
• Fill In Blanks Question

Let’s go into detail on how to do it and what to keep in mind while setting up those questions:

True Or False Question

In this section, you only need to set True or False for the statement you gave previously in Question Description.

True Or False Question is a classic question format for testing simple factual knowledge. When creating true or false questions, consider the following practices:

• Keep it simple: Focus on a single, clear concept within each statement. Avoid overly complex or multi-part statements.
• Direct Language: Use straightforward wording and avoid ambiguity.
• Avoid Double Negatives: Sentences with “not” or “never” can be confusing. Keep your statements positive whenever possible.

Multi Choice Question

In this section, you need to choose the correct answers for the statement you gave in Question Description.

Multiple Choice question allows for several options, with more than one potentially correct answer. When creating multi-choice questions, consider the following practices:

• Make it a complete question: The stem itself should clearly pose a question or a problem to be solved, without relying on the answer options to complete the thought.
• Keep it concise: Aim for a simple, direct stem to improve clarity and avoid confusing students.
• Avoid negatives if possible: Double negatives (like “Which of the following is NOT…”) can be tricky. Rephrase for a positive statement when possible. If negatives are essential, highlight them for easier recognition.

Single Choice Question

In this section, you need to choose the only correct answer for the statement you gave in Question Description.

Single Choice question similar to multi-choice, but with only one definitively correct answer. When creating single-choice questions, consider the following practices:

• The question stem should be clear and concise. Avoid unnecessary information or phrasing that makes the question difficult to understand.
• Focus on a single concept or problem. Don’t try and test multiple ideas within one question.
• Choose language appropriate for your audience. Avoid jargon or overly complex wording that could confuse the quiz-taker.

Fill In Blanks Question

In this section, you will need to prepare one or more complete paragraphs. To select the words you want to choose as the answer in the fill-in-the-blank section, please do as follows:

• Step 1: Select a word or a phrase in the Details box.
• Step 2: Click the “Insert a new blank” button to make that word/phrase a blank for filling.
• Step 3: Repeat until the question setup is complete.

In addition, for each answer, we provide options to make the answer more flexible. Options section of answers as shown below:

Fill In Blanks question requires the learner to actively recall information to complete missing words or phrases. When creating fill-in-the-bank questions, consider the following practices:

• Start Subtle, Increase Difficulty: Begin with less obvious hints, and if a student uses multiple hints, make them progressively more revealing.
• Adjust Based on Difficulty: For challenging vocabulary or concepts, give more supportive hints. For simpler questions, keep them basic.
• Avoid Giving Away the Answer: Hints should guide thinking, not simply provide the solution.

After you complete all the settings of the question. Scroll up to Publish or Update that question. You can also see if this question has been assigned to any quiz in the Assigned section.
