Frequently Asked Questions

You can test your learners with assessments when they have completed the course activities. LOOP LMS provides different types of question for you to test your learners:

• Fill in the Blank: It consists of a phrase, sentence, or paragraph with a blank space where the learner provides the missing word(s).

• Multiple Choice: A form of an objective assessment in which the learners are asked to select only correct answers from a list of choices.
• Single Choice: A closed-ended question where there is only one answer from the list of options.
• Drag and Drop Marker: The learners are asked to drop markers onto an area on a background image, where the drop zones have been defined while creating the question.
• Drag and Drop Text: The learners are asked to drag and drop text options from an answer bank into the question text.
• Essay: Learners are required to write their answers in a sentence, paragraph, or short composition.
