Adding true or false questions to your Easygenerator courses is really simple. Just note that Easygenerator refers to these as ‘Statement questions.’ Here’s how you can add them:
Ensure the question’s instruction is purposeful, directly addressing a specific issue that aligns with the learning objective.
Frame your statements on solid facts rather than opinions to avoid subjective interpretations.
Don’t use negative phrasing or double negatives, which can lead to confusion.
Keep your statements brief and to the point for easy comprehension.
Stick to three to five statements per question to prevent overwhelming or confusing learners.
Design your questions without any hints that might reveal the correct answers.
Ensure all options are consistent in structure, length, and grammar.
True or false questions are straightforward yet powerful. They’re easy to create and add depth to any e-learning course. They quickly show if learners understand key concepts. But it’s not just about yes or no answers. This straightforward approach simplifies assessment and deepens understanding, turning basic statements into learning opportunities.
