Modified True/False Question

Modified True/False

A modified true/false question is similar to a standard true/false question, in that a student must indicate if a sentence or phrase is true or false. For these kinds of questions, a student must also change or edit the question if it is false to make it true.

For internet or LAN-based tests, modified true/false questions can be scored only if there is one word or phrase to enter. Online tests do not support Modified True/False questions.

1. Select a modified true/false question and click Edit, or click New and select Modified True/False to create a new question.
2. Enter the question in the Question area.

   When you enter a modified true/false question, identify the word or phrase that needs to be modified. Also, provide an underscore for the student to write their answers.

   EXAMPLE

   ExamView allows for three question types.

5. Optionally, click Info and then enter the question information.
6. Optionally, click the Narrative drop-down menu to link an existing narrative to the question. To enter or edit a narrative, click Narrative.
7. Click Record to save the question. Click Close if you do not want to save any changes you made.
   TIP

   Click View from the menu bar and select Ruler to display a ruler while entering a question. You can also change the space shown for the Question and Answer entry areas. Position the mouse pointer on the border between the two entry areas. When the mouse pointer changes to a resize cursor, drag the border to change the size as desired.

Modified True/False are not supported in tests published to the ExamView Online Testing Service.
