Distractor options are wrong answers designed to distract the learner from the correct piece of code. Distractors can improve the effectiveness of a question and reduce the possibility of a learner working out a correct answer solely by process of elimination. In the Multiple Choice Fill-in Code template, you may input no fewer than 2 and no more than 5 distractor options.

The Correct Option allows you to add a specific correct answer using the Code/Text Editor. For more information, see the Edit Code/Syntax Button.

Use this dialog box to enter incorrect answers that are similar to, but not exactly, correct.

Examples

• Correct Option
  <td>This is a table tag.</td>
• Distractor Option 1
  <t>This is a table tag.</t>
• Distractor Option 2
  <tt>This is a table tag.</tt>

Choice-specific feedback only appears in the Multiple Choice Fill-in Code when in Practice Mode.
