Introduction

What are Exercises?
Exercises are assessments that you can add to a concept (lesson).
You can create an exercise for a lesson by adding questions and answers in the Questions module. You can add multiple questions to an exercise in the different formats. 

• Plain text
• Multiple choice with the following options
  • Checkbox
  • Dropdown
  • Radio button
  • Agree and Disagree 
• True and False

You can set up questions for an exercise in the following types of patterns:

• Random - The LMS auto-selects the specified number of questions from the Questions module.
• Fixed - You can select questions from the Questions module.

• You first need to add questions and link them to the exercise, concept, and course in the Questions module.
• Questions have automated weightage % and maximum score allotted.
• You can set up a maximum pass percentage for an exercise.
• Students can make multiple attempts to pass an exercise.
• Once students submit answers in the Portal, you can:
  • View responses for it
  • Review submitted answers 
  • Allot scores for students' answers individually

• Adding exercises to a concept
• Viewing responses, review, and allot scores for exercise questions
