Reading Response Item Types

To successfully complete interactive assessment items, such as Multiple Choice, Selectable Text or Objects, Drag and Drop activities, and others; students will use a variety of response item types.

Multiple Choice Single Select

The Multiple Choice Single Select item type displays a word and a series of images, one of which corresponds with the word above.

Multiple Choice Multiple Select

The Multiple Choice Multiple Select item type is represented by a square checkbox button next to each answer option. Instructions and question stems let students know that they are to select more than one correct answer.

Contextual Multiple Choice

The Contextual Multiple Choice item type displays on a specific page within the text, which allows the student access to the text while answering the question. Wrong answer feedback is given by the avatar previously selected by the student. In addition to audio feedback, key points in the text are highlighted to draw the student’s attention to areas of focus.

Selectable Hot Text (Highlight End Activity)

The Selectable Hot Text (Highlight End Activity) item type allows students to highlight answers directly in the text. Assessment items may be single-select or multiple-select answers.

Evidence-Based Selected Response

The Evidence-Based Selected Response item type combines a selected-response question with a second selected-response question. In the second selected-response question, the student is asked to show evidence from the text that supports the answer provided to the first question.
