Once your evaluation framework is set up, it's time to add your questions. Begin by clicking the Add Questions link from the Evaluation preview at the bottom of the Evaluation page. 

From there, you can select from the following types of questions/statements, which we will take a look at in more detail.

Media can be added to the Multiple Choice, Information, and Free Text fields.

The multiple choice question

Multiple-choice questions are the only question type that allows for associated point values. Here we can see the various fields of the multiple-choice question and what they mean.

1. Question Field – enter the question here.
2. Answer Fields – enter answers in this area. Selecting the + at the bottom left will allow you to add more answers. You can delete an answer field by clicking the X to the right of the field.
3. Require more details – if an answer is selected, a prompt to enter more information will appear.
4. Question Category - questions may be assigned a category for reporting purposes.
5. Point Values – negative or positive point values can be assigned to an answer.
6. Total Points – maximum number of points a participant may receive for this question. If this number is lower than the number of possible question points, this question will be worth "extra credit."

Toggling between BUILD and PREVIEW allows you to see the evaluation as the participant sees it and then go back to adding more or editing questions.
