True and false blocks

True and false is a question block that lets your learners respond to statements with a simple yes or no, making it quick and easy to reinforce key concepts.

You can include multiple questions within a single block and use true and false blocks in formal assessment sections to evaluate your learners' progress.

Create a true and false block

1. Navigate to the storyboard view of your lesson.
2. Select 'Add new block'
3. Select the 'Question' drop-down in the left-hand sidebar.

2. Select the true and false section of the block.
3. Select the answers directly to edit them.

Add more questions

1. Navigate to the editor view of your true and false block.
2. Select the true and false section of the block.
3. In the left-hand sidebar, roll your mouse over over the existing true and false answers.
4. Select one of the blue '+' buttons.

Change answer labels

1. Navigate to the editor view of your true and false block.
2. Select the true and false section of the block.
3. In the left-hand sidebar, enter new labels in the text-entry boxes under 'Answer Labels'.

 ❗️ Note: The same labels will be applied to all questions in the block.

Designate correct answers

1. Navigate to the editor view of your true and false block.
2. Select the true and false section of the block.
3. In the left-hand sidebar, select the correct answer within each question. Answers designated as correct will appear with a white circle, and will appear ticked in the question section.

Edit feedback

 ❗️ Note:  You can only record a single message to be delivered to all incorrect responses. Variations of feedback responses for different submitted answers cannot be recorded.  Check out our tip on how to write effective feedback.

Randomize questions and answers order

1. Navigate to the editor view of your true and false block.

2. Select the true and false section of the block.
