Question Builder – Step 3 of 4

This step allows you to attach one or more (up to 10) digital Resources for students to reference whilst answering a Question.

An example of a Resource attached to a Question might be a picture, graph or text excerpt that students have to review to answer the Question.

It is not mandatory to attach a Resource to your Question. To proceed to Step 4 of the 'Question Builder' without attaching a Resource, click the 'Next' button.

Assigned to a custom group of students (using Staff Kiosk Assessment > Learning Objects (Maintain and Assign)).
Attached to an Activity (using Staff Kiosk Assessment > Learning Objects (Maintain and Assign) and/or webBook Progressive Assessment).

An example of a Resource that is attached to an Activity could be a rubric that outlines to the students what they need to do to achieve a certain mark.
